## --disable-gpu
Disables the use of the GPU in the renderer process. If this is set with the
`--disable-gpu-compositing` switch, *offscreen rendering* will use a software
output device, which has much better overall performance but lacks of WebGL
and 3D CSS support.
## --disable-gpu-compositing
Disables the use of the GPU compositing in the renderer process. This should be
set with the `--disable-gpu` switch for *offscreen rendering*.
``` javascript
const {app, BrowserWindow} = require('electron');
app.commandLine.appendSwitch('disable-gpu');
app.commandLine.appendSwitch('disable-gpu-compositing');
let win = new BrowserWindow({
webPreferences: {
offscreen: true
}
});
win.loadURL('http://github.com');
win.webContents.on('paint', (event, dirty, data) => {
updateBitmap(dirty, data);
});
