Whats the issue with Safari, WebGL and JavaScript performance, compared to other browsers Safari its a fullblown disaster. I think a saw a commercial stating Safari is the fastest browser ever ;-) hey, I can tell and show you, its not ;-).

Please provide the URL of a page where you see worse WebGL performance in Safari than other browsers. Which devices are you seeing this on?

We're seeing the same issue in all our WebGL applications. It definitely worked in April 2021, since then without changing any code the Safari performance went from 60fps to 2fps.

Example scene built in unity (with a camera-texture since camera input is important for our AR applications): https://test.looc.io/forest/index.html
