Just did some testing...

2000 particles...

STATIC SPRITES
(no movement, no nothing... just render)
= 85fps

SIMPLE SINGLE SURFACE SYSTEM
(with position updates)
= 220fps

so there's your difference... just displaying sprites is MUCH slower than my whole SS particle system with position updates.

see for yourself...
