Although I hate it when people answer a question like this with "but
why would you want to do that", but....

why would you want to do that? <g>

I'm a benchmark junkie and knowing what my framerates are in any given
game is important to me. But, I don't need to *constantly* monitor my
framerates. There's enough going on in-game anyway without having one
more thing (framerates) to look at. If your system is well tuned and
you've tweaked the game to the best of your ability by running
repeated benchmarks, then there's really nothing else you can do.
Having the framerate constantly blinking in the upper right corner of
the screen can't possibly help or give you any useful information that
you can use while playing.

But to answer your question... I don't know. ;-)

Curiosity killed the cat.

Hmmm. That might not translate well. How about... you probably don't
want to hear the answer. ;-)

That describes quite a few blokes I know.

Still, I am at a loss as to why the OP was so concerned about a performance
issue, and yet so unknowing that he couldn't (wouldn't) do a quick google
search. Doesn't make sense?.....

The only answer that makes any sense is that he is lazy in addition to
being stupid. Not an uncommon occurrance in today's society. Sad, really.

You look more stupid. Your writing ability makes you appear as an
uneducated grammar school dropout. Are you proud of that? Go back to
school.

College has nothing to do with it. Your writing is worse than most 3rd
graders.

Most people do care about grammar in a newsgroup. Without it, you appear
to be a fool, and people don't think much of what you may have to say. In
other words, you have no credibility.

It's not only typos. It's lack of punctuation, capitalization, and
grammar that makes you look like an idiot. Those are not the same as
typos, although all of them indicate carelessness.

You'd be surprised...
