Any news of Jaguar and OpenGL games?

Does anyone know from word or experience whether Jaguar addresses some of the performance issues of OpenGL games?



The reports I'v received are contradictory, one saying better performance of Warcraft in OSX opposed to OS9, and yet another denying that.



Warcraft is good enough to boot into OS9 per use, but will this have to continue?

    I haven't played Warcraft 3 in OS 9, but I've played it in 10.1.5, and now multiple builds of Jaguar, including 6C113. I don't think I can say Warcraft runs any faster in Jaguar than it did in 10.1.5... but then, why would it? I think it does launch faster though.



    I do think Unreal Tournament X runs better in Jaguar than 10.1... don't ask me why. No benchmarks, it just seems to be running better.
