Hi all,

Building the benchmark app and running on a Motorola xoom I get a reasonable number of sprites on the tablet at 60 FPS (once I remove the background and particle effects).

I'm just wondering how much of a difference building and running the same app using Tier 2 would give? Has anybody done any kind of benchmarking between the two tiers?

If using c++ code gives a considerable boost to performance I may consider developing in that rather than basic.

Cheers,
Dud

C++ will give a boost to user code, e.g. tier 1 math and logic, but the rendering engine is already C++ so will handle the same number of sprites/particles across both tiers.

Great thats good to know. Are other things also already c++ as well such as the physics support?
