In this video, I want to go over a topic that many people have asked me about — scaling on 4K monitors on Mac. While there does seem to be some information out there suggesting this may be a significant hit to performance, some data suggests otherwise. I spent that last week researching and testing things out, and I have my own thoughts on the matter. Watch for more.
