LiveCode 6.6 very slow on Retina MacBookPro

[Terence Heaford]

Just read this out of interest and noted:

"However, that being said, my current experiments indicate that around a two-fold increase in rendering speed should be attainable for large and reasonably graphically complex stacks (lots of bitmap effects and gradients) which should certainly help to mitigate jump from normal to Retina resolution”

This is when compared to a 4 fold decrease due to the increase in pixels of a retina display.

Overall does this actually mean a 2 fold decrease in rendering speed when comparing a retina screen to a conventional?

Thanks

Terry
