33 This extension is written against the wording of the EGL 1.5 Specification
37 This extension is intended for latency-sensitive applications that are doing
38 front-buffer rendering. It allows them to indicate to the Android compositor
39 that it should perform composition every time the display refreshes. This
40 removes the overhead of having to notify the compositor that the window
41 surface has been updated, but it comes at the cost of doing potentially
42 unneeded composition work if the window surface has not been updated.

61 doing front-buffer rendering.
