| * ''-Dsun.java2d.opengl=true'' enables Hardware-acceleration via OpenGL ((This is known to be broken with Intel graphics on multiple computers as it does some weird tiling thing and is unplayable)) | * :!: 2023/06/19: There are no known configurations where ''-Dsun.java2d.opengl=true'' offers a performance benefit |

| * :!: 2020/03/24: On macOS, using the official ''.dmg'' to install OSRS resulted in the worst possible performance due to a mix of forced GPU acceleration and Retina with Java 8; it was recommended to manually install OSRS and to use the latest OpenJDK package available instead to workaround this | * :!: 2020/03/24: On macOS, using the official ''.dmg'' to install OSRS resulted in the worst possible performance due to a mix of forced GPU acceleration and Retina with Java 8; it was recommended to manually install OSRS and to use the latest OpenJDK package available instead to workaround this |
| * ''-Dsun.java2d.uiScale'' at 2 and higher increases all UI scale in-game, and improves performance with lowering texture resolution | * ''-Dsun.java2d.uiScale'' at 2 and higher increases all UI scale in-game, and improves performance with lowering texture resolution |
| * 2023/03/17: RuneLite with GPU plug-in at default view distance had lower FPS than CPU renderer, and GPU plug-in blurs everything. Using this standard Java client seems the best choice. | |
