3D performance on OSX mavericks

Post by atez »

Hi All,

I update from moutain lion to mavericks, but found the 3d accerlation in ubuntu guest get very poor performance. compiz very sluggish, evening moving window is a problem.

update to 3.4.10 today, the full screen seems ok now, but 3d performance still bad and compiz sluggish still.

Any solution?

I had a rMBP, and ubuntu compiz was super fast when in moutain lion.

Thank you!

did you install the 4.3.10 extension pack and the guest additions?

the 3D performance on my iMac is fine so it might be a retina display issue. If anything Mavericks should be a little faster than Mountain Lion was.
