Post From: OpenGL support Now Ready for Initial Testing

Our initial thought about those users who are noticing performance issues with a particular GPU is as follows:

Do not tell the operating system what GPU Sierra Chart should be using. It needs to make that decision itself.

And a particular chart must not be contained in more than one display. If two or more displays a chart is contained within are driven by different GPUs, you would create a situation where there are inefficiencies because the operating system has to start transferring resulting output between video adapters.

It is not efficient to have GPU do the rendering, and then have this output transferred to another display which uses a different GPU.

The above statements still have to be technically confirmed by us, and are just at this point only a logical conclusion.

------
When changing which GPU Sierra Chart is assigned to, you do need to restart Sierra Chart so there is a re-initialization of OpenGL on the Sierra Chart side.
