73679 2011-12-02 11:29:48 -0800 [chromium] Use EXT_discard_framebuffer to optimize buffer clearing 2013-04-12 07:30:28 -0700 1 1 1 Unclassified WebKit Layout and Rendering 528+ (Nightly build) Unspecified Unspecified RESOLVED WONTFIX P2 Normal --- 1 skyostil skyostil schenney oldest_to_newest 513968 0 skyostil 2011-12-02 11:29:48 -0800 In situations where we know that rendering is fully opaque and covers the entire framebuffer we could use the EXT_discard_framebuffer extension (where available) instead of glClear(). This allows some GPUs to avoid copying the previous framebuffer contents to temporary storage when starting to render.
