VBO

Did anyone observe a performance boost
with VBO extension on Linux?

I have a NVidia GF 5900 fx ultra board
with driver 6111 on Suse 8.2.

On this machine I couldn’t observe a difference
in performance though I am not sure that
I did everything correctly.Before spending more
time on this I’d like to know that VBO
really works.

Thanks in advance

This all depends about the test you’re running.
If you compare with rendering objects from display lists, you’ll hardly notice any performance boost.
If you compare with traditional VA, maybe you won’t see a performance boost if the driver is “clever” enough.

Anyway, what kind of performance do you get ? I mean, how many polygons per second are rendered, how big are the polygons, and are they lit/textured/shaded/etc ?
