Description Giuseppe Barbieri 2017-04-02 11:51:17 CEST 
We should have an option to disable/inhibit any call to glGetError() 

It shouldn't be called in production.

I had several problems in the past with buffer rings and asynchronous processes.

I believe it has to do with multi-threaded drivers, where glGetError() causes a synchronization
