gdizzz, according to freemangordon, GLES1 isn't supported hardware'ishly by our GPU (only GLES2 is) - it is emulated completely on CPU.
Could it mean that, after all, my first impression that we're going on sole CPU power, was right? Would it explain why kernel "eats" most CPU power, when homeworld is running (GLES1 emulation)? If all of the above isn't plain BS, how doable would be HomeworldSDL using GLES2, if at all? Sorry, if this is a question that leaves just sad smile - all those GLES<whatever_number> things are confusing a hell outta' me. /Estel
