Yes, and yes. The video is lagging because the recording software killed my gpu pretty badly (and I didn't want to lower the resolution from 1920x1200). Android is... well, OpenGL ES 2.0 in most cases (I don't know if there is any OpenGL ES 3.0 capable device out there, since it's a really recent standard), and OpenGL ES 2.0 is rather limited in terms of what you can send and process on the shader. The GPUs are in most cases capable (heck, most PowerVR GPUs are DirectX 11 capable by now), but the functions we need to efficiently push the lighting data to the GPU just aren't there.

I haven't used Esenthel yet, so please excuse my ignorance, but what kind of macros are we talking about?
