DSA(Included in game from version 1.21.11):
DSA(direct-state access) buffers(VBO, EBO, FBO), allows you not to bind buffers to render, reducing the number of operations, also adds a VBO/EBO pool, which creates a config-defined size value and allows you to reuse buffers.
RBO(>1.21.11):
Uses a Renderbuffer(RBO) for depth (which also uses DSA if it enabled on "FBO only" or "All") instead of texture, this slightly increases performance.
SIMD:
Accelerates CPU computations(in Frustum(~1.21.1) and Weather rendering(~1.21.11)) using the Vector API from the jdk.incubator module
Requires a JVM argument to run:
- Find the JVM arguments list in your launcher and add
--add-modules jdk.incubator.vectorto it. - Detailed guide for popular launchers

Problem-solving policy:
- If issue marked as “Bug/Compat,” it will have the highest priority.
- If issue marked as “Inaccuracy,” it has a low priority and implies that there is minor inaccuracy in the game process, which can be resolved by disabling config setting.
- If the game crashes, you should start by checking the JVM arguments to see if the
jdk.incubator argument is present. Important ⚠️:
If your GPU's OpenGL is lower than 4.5, some features will be unavailable!
RBO not compatible with shaderpacks.
Since minecraft 1.21.10 GpuTape support will be discontinued(Use GPUBooster instead).
