The whole point of LWJGL was to bring the speed of Java rendering into the 21st century. This is why we have: Thrown out methods designed for efficient C programming that make no sense at all in java, such as glColor3fv. Made the library throw an exception when hardware acceleration is not available on Windows. No point in running at 5fps is there?

"Processing cross platform and is a totally free to download, use and publish with programming language. The download includes the programming environment and compiler as well.
