Do you think we should use LazOpenGLContext? I'm afraid BGRABitmap is not optimize for performance.
Hmz.. that could perhaps be an option.

To put things more in context, I seem to remember a thread here on the forums where someone asked about performance of his game. Another user tested that for him on a pi (Also a pi3 if I remember correctly) and seem to have concluded that the raspbian desktop is not using accelerated drivers.

SO, how much is to blame on bgrabitmap is difficult to tell. I have no idea if it is worth the effort, as this is a pretty out of the ordinary setup to begin with.

What do you think handoko ?

Tonight, I will try to optimize code.

Common flicker issues usually can be solved by painting all the items in one single pass. I will try to modify the code without using panels and then draw all the clocks in a buffer then put it on the screen.

But if the flicker only happens when resizing, I think we can temporary disable the drawing routine when it detect the resizing event.

I will investigate this problem later.
