This optimization came at +the expense of rendering performance in some cases, and was also the +source of several +bugs. Now that this optimization is disabled, rendering +performance and stability should improve for most applications, but +some +applications may notice a slow-down in update performance. For this +reason, we have added a new system property to re-enable the sole-user +optimization.<br> +</p> +<ul> + <li><code>j3d.allowSoleUser</code> – If this flag is set to +true, the 1.4.0-fcs behavior is restored, causing the sole-user +optimization to be allowed when appropriate.
