The new driver is improved. Maybe a notch faster. and transparency works well with it remaining on. However, it still significantly falls behind Duet Display where the experience is almost native. Not to mention that that one is passed over USB 2.0 connection (low bandwidth) and pushes a retina 2048x1536

What's interesting about DD is that they have an option of selecting either the dedicated GPU or the iGPU to process it.. which leads to me to think that there might be some kind of GPU acceleration involved. Now i dont know how DL does it but maybe DL can harness more of that power too. Comparing the two, the displaylink gobbles a ton of CPU while the DD does not go up as much for the same tasks
