I think I raised the option to do this and we never defined whether to do or not, so \
i just added both variants. The way it is we lie about the time which has actually \
passed to compensate the lagging frame (what makes the animation shorter but fix the \
time regarding the triggering event)

You can just pick one or i'll remove the dead branch before committing (and add a \
comment that we lie)

I'll try on gles syncing tonight - drivers got eventually updated but according to \
fredrik this should actually be just forced on by all mesa drivers. TBDR however can \
likely really not sync for principal reasons - do you have a PowerVR on some board?

The commented check is actually "correct" by when i tried only nvidia but not intel \
passed it. Latter yelled and "rage" (that reads" "out of range" - i'm really good at \
typos ;-) error - what is wrong. The command would deactivate the swapinterval \
(syncing glXSwapBuffers calls) but as mentioned according to fredrik and iirc, that's \
forced on anyway (got to re-investigate)

It however doesn't have *that* much of an impact since glXSwapBuffers isn't the \
default action anyway (on glx)

I'd similarly add a comment about what should happen and why we don't check instead \
of the branch

commented check is actually &quot;correct&quot; by when i tried only nvidia but not \
intel passed it. Latter yelled and &quot;rage&quot; (that reads&quot; &quot;out of \
range&quot; - i&#39;m really good at typos ;-) error - what is wrong. The command \
would deactivate the swapinterval (syncing glXSwapBuffers calls) but as mentioned \
according to fredrik and iirc, that&#39;s forced on anyway (got to re-investigate)

It however doesn&#39;t have *that* much of an impact since glXSwapBuffers isn&#39;t \
the default action anyway (on glx)

I&#39;d similarly add a comment about what should happen and why we don&#39;t check \
instead of the branch</pre> <br />

swapping and defers the next swapping to the next anticipated frame (or idling) The \
behavior is still not as deterministic as we hoped to be since we cannot measure the \
time for the actual vsync :\ I set a fuzzyness of 6ms what leads to a majority of \
2-3ms times in waitsync but single wait times up to 8 or 9ms occur (what ultimately \
can be part of the syncing itself)

There&#39;s some debug code to print lagging.

TODO:
- attempt egl support
- probably lie to the effects about the time</pre>

lowered the maxFPS down to 10fps with pretty constant results for the time lost \
waiting for the sync.</pre>  </td>
