Mac OpenGL Performance Tool

So it's Saturday evening and it's cold an damp out in the Pacific Northwest. Nothing to do but stay warm and cozy in the den with my trusty G5. I decide to learn a few things about OpenGL, so point my browser at the Apple developer site at:

http://developer.apple.com/samplecod...enGL-date.html

and play with some of the code. I stumble across a developer tool called OpenGL Driver Monitor already on my system, part of the free Xcode developer kit. It lets you sample all kinds of performance statistics for each grapics card. If you're not happy with the performace of your graphics card, maybe this tool will help you pass the time.

Reasons people don't watch Star Trek:
60% - It’s for nerds.
39% - The show’s stupid.
01% - My parents were killed by Klingons and it's still too painful.
