Hi Frank, I tracked down the problem. The way the superbuild was calling ./configure for mesa was causing the default -O2 flags set by mesa's ./configure to get dropped, thus resulting in an unoptimized mesa build. I just merged a fix for both issues into the superbuild. -- Chuck

Chuck, thanks to your help, I could compile ParaView v5.1.2 with Mesa v12.0.3 (release version, not from GIT repository) using the master git checkout (hash 26eb1fa8f5364242d9f9c03b598f0ee735cf88e4) from last week. It was not easy but probably due my lack of experience using the superbuild

Hi Chuck, Thank you very much for your reply. It is very interesting and I will try my best to get ParaView compiled following your recommendations. Unfortunately, others duties are holding me off this week from concentrating on this but I will share my test results comparing ParaView on GPU,

Hi David! Thanks for the swift feedback. As I have been compiling ParaView from source for at least the last 6 years, it never came to my mind trying out the super-build. £ I’ll try it out and report if I find myself stuck. By the way, which CMake version do you recommend for building
