I know this is a pretty obscure use for a rMBP, but I like watching Twitch considering I can't do much gaming on my laptop. The problem is, it lags no matter what. When I say lag, I mean it isn't playing at the full FPS that the stream is being broadcasted at. I know this because I try it on my iPhone or even a crappy PC and even the crappy PC plays it smoothly. I wonder if this is due to all the extra rendering the graphics card is having to do for Yosemite?
I wish this wasn't an issue, as the 27" TBD is far superior to anything I've ever tested for video watching. I wonder if the 15" rMBP with dedicated graphics would do noticeably better? At any rate, I'm getting ready to give up on my weak machine.
Also, I have tried different browsers.
