The results really surprised me, I thought it would be less, but I don't know why really. Anyone want to take a guess? What is strange about my results, is that every few milliseconds the amount of millisecond queries that occurs ...... doubles. Why does this happen I wonder? Can someone double check if that happens on your CPU? I'm on WIndows 10 on an i5 4570. Here is the code. -------------------------------------- local last_known_millisecond local queries = 0 local report on mouseUp lock screen put empty into report local x repeat 1000 times add 1 to x put 0 into queries put the milliseconds into last_known_millisecond repeat forever add 1 to queries if the milliseconds = last_known_millisecond then next repeat else exit repeat end if end repeat put queries into line x of report end repeat unlock screen put report end mouseUp -- Tom Glod Founder & Developer MakeShyft R.D.A (www.makeshyft.com) Mobile:647.562.9411 _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
