Hi! So here are my questions : -Are the commands glMultMatrix, glRotate... executed by the cpu or the graphics card? -Is glBindTexture a ''slow'' OpenGL command? Thanks in advance for the help.

-Is glBindTexture a ''slow'' OpenGL command?

Any command, when used excessively, can become a bottleneck. Don''t fret if you''re using it normally (for example not binding a new texture at every iteration of a huge loop)
