[Mac] Minion uses integrated graphics instead of discrete graphics
I just figured out how to see whether the low power Intel GPU or the higher powered ATI GPU is being used in my MacBook Pro. I was surprised to see that Minion is using the ATI GPU and as a result is acting as an energy drain on my system. I’m confused because Minion does not look like a graphically intensive app. You can see in the screenshot for Activity Monitor in the energy tab that under the “Requires High Perf GPU” Minion is labeled as Yes.
