You might consider using FBOs and rendering to offscreen color and depth buffers
to save yourself two read-backs of the frame buffer.

You need to call glFinish (), not glFlush (). glFlush () means that all
commands are passed to OpenGL for processing - not that the processing
has finished (for example, if you use OpenGL via Network, glFlush ()
send all commands in a packet). glFinish () on the other hand does wait
until the rendering has finished.
