SFML bindings

Great! I'm interested on your engine. Where can I find it?

And how perfomance is? Comparable with ZenGL?

I'll get it sorted later

For anyone else that's looking to make suggestions, comments etc. we have a dedicated forum for this purpose:-

It's rather gameloop with some features I will post it later.

Benchmark with similar scene (maybe not entirely accurate) with VSync off:
ZenGL:
20 000 sprites = 55 FPS
30 000 sprites = 38 FPS
40 000 sprites = 30 FPS
50 000 sprites = 23 FPS

SFML:
20 000 sprites = 59 FPS
30 000 sprites = 40 FPS
40 000 sprites = 30 FPS
50 000 sprites = 23 FPS

So rendering is +- same but SFML doesn't use sprite batching.

CPU (1 Core) with 20 000 sprites:
with 5-7% CPU load (VSync on)
with 7,5 - 12,2% CPU load (VSync on) or 14 - 17% with limiter( sfRenderWindow_setFramerateLimit( Window, 60 );

Hardware: CPU Xeon 1231v3 (i7) 3.4GHz, GPU old AMD 6950

I don't know what causes bigger CPU load in SFML test. Maybe using external dll?

Cool perfomance! Is your Wrapper multi-os-arch?

High CPU usage In most of cases is OpenGL driver implementation (FullScreen for example).
