Performance under 10.12.6?

[justinrr]

Thanks, Carlo!

FYI, for others out there, also received this email from someone else at DisplayLink:

Hi Justin,

Thanks for your enqiry,

If your setup is working well, i would hold off updating where possible. Some users have experienced issues when using 10.12.6 .

There is a driver architecture change when macOS 10.13 comes out along with DisplayLink 4.0 software.



Kind regards,
James

Hi Justin,

Yes I had a chat with James, he still did not know the results of the tests on 10.12.6. Unfortunately since 10.12.4 the user experience for anyone with a discrete graphics card is appalling. This includes me!

Thank you for letting me know.

I'm still att 10.12.3, but I have a Macbook Pro 2012 12" with just the HD-graphics card. Is it safe to upgrade, or should I wait for the 10.13 update? The external display is crucial for my work.

Firefox and Royal TSX is not working under 10.12.6.
Safari works.
WeChat is not working as well.
