Iv started a benchmark demo package for LWJGL. I noticed the sync() julted on my machine a bit.
So i implemented a timer for nanoTime() and currentMill...
and found that nanoTime() was actually the smoothest of the lot.
machine
OS Name Microsoft Windows 7 Professional
Version 6.1.7600 Build 7600
System Manufacturer Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
System Model G31M-ES2L
System Type X86-based PC
Processor Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5200 @ 2.50GHz, 2500 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)
Has anyone else found this with Windows 7?
Currently the benchmark just loads a crysis nano suit, and spins it.
Can someone else with windows 7 run it, and test each timer on the menu to check which timer runs the smoothest.
You will need to use your eyes to discern which method is smoothest.
also in regards to to the benchmark applet. I was wondering if anyone would like to contribute some 3D demos to it.
It would be cool if anyone has implemented some cool effects that hog up system resources.
So if anyone is interested in it, Ill post the process to add a Benchmark test.

almost forgot about the url:
