[PD] gemwin frame rate limit?

[Cyrille Henry]

hello,
on Linux, you can change vertical syncro that using nvidia-settings tools if you use a nvidia GPU. Otherwise, i don't know, certainly tweking the Xorg.conf.
(look for"sync to Vblank")

Using triple buffer may provide solution for faster than screen rendering, but i don't see the point in that.
If you have a shader or somthing else that sould be faster than sreen rendering, you still can bang gemhead with a metro...

cheers
