Hi,
As soon as I bind a FBO (even if I don't use it, unbinding it just one line after), the framerate slow down from 125FPS (no FBO used) to 97FPS (one FBO bound/unbound). If I bind/unbind a second framebuffer, I get 75FPS.
So it seems like framebuffer binding eats up 2.66ms, which is pretty huge for such a simple operation !
What's going on ?
I'm using a GeForce GTX260, driver 197.13, Win 7 x64.

An assumption what happens with a simple API call is often a nasty performance trap. You really don't know what happens in the driver, with a simple call you could trigger complex processing or flushing of the command pipeline.
An other nasty trap: are you checking for errors after binding the fbo ? Checking for errors often flushes the command pipeline.
