Just a quick question. Has anyone worked with the GLU NURBs renderer at all? How fast is it?
Is it capable of realtime performance?
Can it handle samples of 256x256 control points per patch?

About as fast as a very slow thing indeed.

Very very slow real time performance, not too bad for simple planes etc, but dramatically slows down to a stand still. No hardware support…

yes, just very slowly.
