Apple's new M1 graphics work makes resolution shifts instantaneous
You got me. Moar monitors = moar virtuous.lkrupp said:

Six monitors?don. said:Wow. I have 6 external displays for work via daisy-chained USB-C docks. Whenever I reboot it will occasionally swap them around putting the top on the bottom and swapping left and right. If you mouse to the screen on the right it ends up on the left. That little display changing flicker is worse than you think. There's also the app resize refresh that takes several seconds to work through before finally the buttons on the arrangement tab adjust. If you try to move a screen arrangement before it's done it will immediately cut off your mouse drag and put the screen right back inducing another round of the flicker. It took me a while to figure out the timing of the refresh and the visual changes to know when it's safe to try a screen move. Before that it was an excruciating exercise in try try try again.From what I've read it seems the current M1 can't handle this setup. Hopefully when the full sized MBPs come out I might be able to flip my screen layout in under 10 seconds it's currently a over a minute with carefully optimized movements and timing. 2019 MBP 32GB i9.What the f**k are you doing?
Video work?
Music?
Mission Control for SpaceX?
Fact-checking Trump’s tweets?I do need them though. Information security. Everyone from the SOC has a minimum of 4 screens, 6 is a bit much but it really helps research CVEs and run tests on disparate systems and VMs. Refresh rate is crap tho, but it's mostly text not playing Crysis.
