-  * ''-Dsun.java2d.opengl=true'' enables Hardware-acceleration via OpenGL, but as of 2018/10/10, this is broken with Intel Graphics on multiple computers ((does some weird tiling thing and is unplayable)) and as of 2019/10/24has significantly worse performance on i5-4278U CPU+==== Performance ====

 +  * ''-Dsun.java2d.opengl=true'' enables Hardware-acceleration via OpenGL 
 +  * :!: This is known to be broken with Intel graphics on multiple computers ((does some weird tiling thing and is unplayable)) 
 +  * :!: There is no known configuration where ''-Dsun.java2d.opengl=true'' offers a performance benefit 
 +  * :!: On macOSusing the official ''.dmg'' to install OSRS results in the worst possible performance due to mix of forced GPU acceleration and Retina with Java 8, and it is recommended to manually install OSRS and to use the latest OpenJDK package available instead to workaround this 
 +  * ''-Dsun.java2d.uiScale'' at 2 and higher improves performance, along with lowering overall texture quality
