FreeBSD vs Windows: OpenGL Performance
noob:
maybe the bsd was limited by drivers or summin. windows one shud be fsater, with all the extra secret api's in windows, but really, 75fps is quite acceptable.

Yes, it does. The Windows version does not. That's what he's looking at.
WMD:
Muzzy - he disabled GL extensions in both versions. Read the top paragraph more carefully.
bedouin:
There's something not right with those results. The FPS are almost identical in BSD at nearly every resolution; usually that suggests there's some kind of processing bottleneck. I'm suspecting the Linux emulation is to blame.
If you want to do this fairly you need to find two OpenGL apps that run natively in both operating systems.
WMD:
FreeBSD has no Linux "emulation" - it's translation, much like VMware. I'm going with muzzy's suggestion of screen refresh issues.
