I did some limited testing today with a modification to the test program you attached to create a MeshView with 200 large quads (400 triangles) in a single node. This will eliminate the node overhead. I can confirm that it is fill rate limited, because when I send the exact same amount of data, but make the triangles small, the frame rate goes up as expected. It sill looks like it isn't shader limited, though, at least on my Windows 10 machine, which has an Intel UHD Graphics 630. More testing is needed on other platforms. I'll share the mods to the test program when I have time, but it's basically just creating a set of quads on top of each other by reusing the same 4 points in each pair of faces. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jfx/pull/43
