Subject:Abysmal performance of selection on Leopard (Mac OS/X 10.5) when using HW Accel for OpenGL

I just upgraded my operating system on my MacBook (2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 Gb 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, OS/X 10.5.1) and am finding selection on Sketchup 6 to be MUCH MUCH slower than it was under Tiger.

It typically takes around 5+ seconds of spinning beach ball to actually do a selection.

But I found that turning off the use of OpenGL hardware acceleration speeds it up considerably (that is, to about the same speed that Sketchup used to run *with* hardware acceleration under Tiger).

Am I missing anything by not using the OpenGL hardware acceleration?

Could SketchUp be fixed to work as well with Leopard as it did with Tiger?
