quad buffered frame rate confusion

[farshizzo]

How precise do you expect the timing to be? When I log the elapsed time between frames it doesn't fluctuate more than 1ms from the expected rate. Either way, Windows does not run at real-time rates so your process can be interrupted by other processes at any time. You can tell Windows to give your process a real-time priority by using the following code:

import win32process
import win32con
win32process.SetPriorityClass(win32process.GetCurrentProcess(),win32con.REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS)

However, this can cause unexpected problems and might not actually help.
