Can I make GL calls? The comment in this section about multi-threaded GL calls providing no performance increase is wrong. CPU overhead in the driver due to GL calls are in practice often a significant performance bottleneck. Many games spend a lot of effort minimising / batching state changes for this reason (not just to reduce the GPU load).
