Did any one noticed the FPS drop in robocode >1.7.3.0?

it seems that these files are identical

#!/bin/sh
pwd=`pwd`
cd "${0%/*}"
java -Xmx512M -cp libs/robocode.jar robocode.Robocode $*
cd "${pwd}"

so it something else

Check here and here. It seems that the openGL was used in 1.7.4.0, not 1.7.3.0.

Thanks a lot for the hint. Running robocode as

java -Xmx512M -Dsun.java2d.opengl=True -cp libs/robocode.jar robocode.Robocode $*

boosted FPS to reasonable 30. But it strange that old client which does not have this line still outperform new one in term of FPS.

Also correction it was not robocode v1.7.3 it is rumble-1.7.3.0 but I guess it based on the same version of robocode.
