Hello please answer this poll and select all options that are relevant to you

We have a lot of renderers and we're not sure we need all of these renderers thanks

I use overlay2 on slow machines (pretty much never these days), glsl on fast machines, and opengl2 when glsl doesn't work. I'm not very educated on the advantages of either one other than "overlay fast, gl good"

CJA: If you've got a slow machine to try, try overlay1 on it and see if it's a similar speed to overlay2. Overlay1 supports layered rendering (see: unbound sprites and such) whereas overlay2 does not.

I had originally voted overlay2, but then I remembered that I had run performance tests on my macbook at overlay1 and overlay2 and found similar performance.

<Insidious> Tixus accidentally microwaved the 80s
<Insidious> that is my takeaway from this

Shoot! I meant to vote when this was posted and then promptly forgot. Thanks
Currently working on Servo for MegaZeux, I hope to complete it by the middle of 2015? Who knows...
