Your question just way too vague to answer

What is a bug? You app runs slows, it could be your code is poor ?

You might want to give some details of you app, some stats along with your
graphics card etc

E.g.

Which Graphics Card
How much graphics memory
Which driver
What screen resolution
Are you running 32 bit colour

What hardware
How much system memory
What Linux version

What compiler version

Which version of Performer

What does you app do
Field of views
Far/Near Clip plane
How many polygons, nodes etc
How many textures,
what size are the textures

Are you draw bound ?
Are you Cull bound
Are you App bound ?
Are you texture bound ?
Are you IO bound
Are you isector bound ?
Are you doing net comms?
Are you doing heavy computation?
Etc
Etc

Is just slow loading etc

Are there other app running etc

The list can go on but you need to provide much more than To just say my app
runs slow and ask why is not going to get you much help or sarcastic
comments like you must write poor code

And above else are you doing you testing in release mode, if you not then
its waste of time because debug builds inherently will be much slower than
release builds, you should only ever do performance testing on release
builds

Best Regards

Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] [info-performer] Free Run on Linux

I am trying to make Performer run as fast as possible on Linux. I have
tried using the different PFPHASE settings with no luck. Any ideas or is
this maybe a known bug on Linux?
