Retro FPS

“Well, my friends, so far its gone very well! “

(Andre Linoge, Storm Of The Century, 1999)

I made a map in giLE2d with some 200 64×64 sprites in it.

I just basically dumped them all over the place and monitored the application. Here is what we got, with giLE2D being triple-clicked on, moved around, stretched, bent and beaten up:

Here is the scrolling test framework running:

To summarize:

CPU: 0 – 4%
MEM WORKING SET: 67,528K
MEM PEAK WORKING SET: 70,476K
MEM WORKING SET DELTA: 0K
MEM PRIVATE: 42,296K
HANDLES (PEAK): 512
THREADS (PEAK): 21
USER OBJECTS: 200
GDI OBJECTS: 187

Note the GDI handles, which I was afraid was going to run into the thousands… no problem at all! (good TWinControl design choice up front!)

Test System Specs:

CPU: Intel Core i5 Sandybridge @ 3.3GHz
RAM: 8Gb DDR-3 1633MHz
OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Professional
GPU: nVidia GeForce GTX 560Ti, 1Gb RAM
HDD: Seagate SATA3 1Tb (not an SSD!)

Other systems will be exploited!

Later, I intend to run automation testing on it and go through two thousand iterations of all functionality in one session. I’ll let you know how we did!
