Is my frame time too high?

Some really interesting replies guys, thanks. I made a mistake in one of my posts, my terrain renders in betwern 1.25ms and 2ms, not 1.25FPS as I said - that really would be super slow! I think my terrain is ultra efficient so no problems there.

The main point of my post was that DXUTIL seems to be able to render nothing faster than I can.

I know I shouldn't be profiling yet, but when the engine is fully loaded and I'm nearing that 16.6ms, I may need that extra bit and I was just curious as to whether DXUtil does something special.

Thanks

as a framework, one would expect it to be no faster, and possibly slower than the minimum required straight forward code.

Its just a framework for writing directx games. inside, its just directx calls, wrapped up in a "on this event" callbacks type architecture.

you can take a look at the code in it for stuff you're working on to make sure you're making the correct calls.
