Socoder -> Off Topic -> Speed testing

I'm working on a game library for C#, but I'm concerned about speed, it's not very fast on my laptop. Maybe it's just the FPS counter that's really messed up. However, my video card is awfully slow, so I'm curious about your frame rates. I've made a little test program, with 48 spinning images. Tell me your FPS, and relieve me of my concerns, please

it "encountered a problem and needs to close".

But the bar thing says FPS: 21 :S Although it errors out immediately, so i doubt that is a fair result..

^ Same as Mole, except I had 62FPS!

Same problem. It works for at most a few seconds with them spinning, then the error hits. I get about 60fps.

Ahh I have to install .net framework to run it. Downloading now...

OT: lol at mole's badge!

|edit| crashed on execution. Saw 3 rows of overlapping red balls.
I'm thinking it's probably my outdated .net framework?

I downloaded, unzipped and ran the Tester.exe

a WINDOWS dialog box popped up with

Tester.Exe Application error:

The application failed to initalize properly(0xc0000135)
Click on OK to Terminate the application.

???

probably have to install the net framework...
but nah!! endless hours of downloading.
Sorry, don't have the time nor want too.

When I tried, I didn't get any errors (obviously), so there has to be something on my comuputer it needs to work properly. I'll try it on another machine and then attempt to fix it.

I think I fixed the problem, but I've decided not to test the speed. At least not at the moment.

OK, so... What was the problem?

Not sure, but I think it was a stupid division by zero.

I disagree Instinct. Like an array out of bounds exception, it'd be better to remove what is throwing the exception rather then simply placing it in a try/catch statement. Try/catch should really be used for exceptions which you don't have control over being thrown, like IO.
