What if he would have said 'You are correct, jsui is slow.' before saying 'Btw, if you disable FSAA, JSUI drawing code is 2-4x faster.'? I bet that would have made all the difference.

At first I was amazed by the amount of replies by experienced users and developers that looked like slinking away. Now I realize what they really say: 

1) 'you are right, this could be better'
2) 'max simply isn't there yet'
3) point out the small improvements there could be made within the current possibilities.

Only step 1 and even 2 are mostly skipped.

It appears that Cycling '74, unlike most other companies, is honest enough to admit things could be better and that it didn't happen yet because of a simple lack of resources (mostly: time). In fact this is assumed to be common knowledge. So don't be too hard on them if they get a little tired of repeating themselves, right? ;)
