(nothing happnes on second screen that Ipad is viewing, no video playing or mouse movement):
setup:
Macbook mid 2015 + IPad Pro 2017 both connected to each other with USB 3.0 cable, internet sharing from macbook to IPad sharing a full virtual display to IPad with 100% quality. virtual display resolution (info from RDM software 1440x900)
Deskreen App running on macbook resources usage: Data sent/sec: ~250 KB RAM usage: 115 MB CPU usage (macbook mid 2015 2.5 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7) ~ 200%
Descreen Viewer (Safai browser on IPad) FPS average - 55
same setup as in test 1, but playing a racing 3d game video in virtual screen on youtube, fullscreen on IPad
--- NO auto quality change performance adjustment feature virtual display resolution (info from RDM software 1440x900)
Deskreen App running on macbook resources usage: RAM becomes 300MB usage (+185MB than in test 1) CPU usage (macbook mid 2015 2.5 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7) ~ 280% (+80% more than in test 1) Data sent/sec ~ 2MB
Descreen Viewer (Safai browser on IPad) framerate drops to ~10 FPS then degrades to ~5FPS while playing racing game video. after playing video finished, framerate comes back to 50 FPS but there is a gum-like mouse pointer movement after that. There are situations where the framerate doesn't go up to 50 even when video is paused. So need to restart screen sharing connection to continue normal usage for user.

The macbook used in this example has a weak GPU. WebRTC has optimization algorithms that use GPU power for streaming videa with less latency. Overall 1280x960 resolution of virtual display, with video auto quality change mode makes Deskreen usable on that setup.
