I think that's not really needed; we'd be crippling any FX improvements if the criteria is that we can't use more memory than before? The better question is, is having less classes (improving the **common** case), and less code an acceptable trade-off versus the case where you have hundreds or thousands of scenes and windows? I think it is. These classes weigh-in at thousands of bytes already (and far more once their peer is created); we're not doing anyone any favors by being overly cautious here. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1819#issuecomment-2936263900
