|FPS is not a good performance metric. If you have vsync turned on in your<br/> | |||
driver, a very tiny change in the time of an operation can make a big fps<br/> | |||
difference. Also, everyone has different hardware... It's more useful to<br/> | |||
look at the OSG statistics (choose "Cycle On-Screen Statistics" twice) and<br/> | |||
report the times reported for each traversal. Or include a screenshot of<br/> | |||
them. | |||
