Apple, ATI, and NVIDIA are all working to improve gaming performance on the Mac, according to a MacRumors report.
Early benchmarks show that Steam games run at a significantly slower framerate under Mac OS X than under Windows; however, a Valve employee assures customers that this issue is being worked on by all parties.
Performance is going to improve as drivers are updated. I would expect modest improvements in short term and larger ones in longer term. No, I can't put dates on them. We are making a lot of progress is identifying specific issues that need work inside the game and inside OpenGL and drivers. Apple, ATI and NVIDIA are all involved.
