No. It's faster than that with Debug on! (100 FPS on my machine in debug)
All the speed sapping on Tattoo comes from Texure copying.
CopyRect appears to drop through the floor when textures larger than 1024x1024 are involved.
Ok, so the texures are 3 - 4 Meg each! But with supposedly 4GB internal bandwidth, that shouldn't make it fall on it's head!
These are relatively powerful machines, but damn...
Dropping back to 1024x768 screen res, brings it up to happy speeds again. In fact using any textures above 1024x1024 will almost certainly kill it stone dead.
PANNO is working on something to see if he can copy Textures around in a bit more of a spritely manner.
I hope he does. I am beginning to think that splitting it into four textures might be a good idea, but I could see that opening a whole new set of Pandora's boxes!
