[MC-12749] Sky and Performance

When you look at the sky chunks start updating dramatically faster, and when you look at the sky FPS increases exponentially as well. If you go into F5 mode, this is no longer present.

I don't get the bug. When you look at the sky, less stuff has to render, therefore FPS increases.

However, shouldn't this not happen because your still in the same place just looking elsewhere?

If you're not looking at something, Minecraft doesn't have to render it on the screen. I fail to understand why this is an error in Minecraft.

What I'm trying to say is shouldn't this performance enhancement still be present with F5 mode?

Is anything else in view in F5 mode?

Just my feet.

When I tried this, I got an FPS increase regardless if I was in F5 or not.

The increase is significantly higher when not in F5 mode though.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.7.2 / Launcher version 1.3.4 ? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
