Re: [Development] Status of QtDeclarative on Windows?

Are you sure you are at least running the release version of your application? 

Debug version uses the debug CRT libs (and a debug Qt which does the same), so 
everything will be a lot slower than the end product.

You cannot really evaluate performance with debug builds.

Re: [Development] Status of QtDeclarative on Windows?

2012-01-14 Thread Todd.Rose
It seems equally slow when running debug and release libs, but will double 
check later this weekend to make sure it's not user-error.  I think it has more 
to do with running with a video card that doesn't provide much (if any?) 
hardware acceleration.  But I was assuming that even in that case that QML2 
would be just as good as QML1.  Clearly something is causing that to not be the 
case.

What's the expectation when using video cards that don't offer OpenGL hardware 
acceleration?
