Question about SDL.DLL version

SDL Development
1

I have compiled my program with SDL 1.2.7.
The framerate is about 85 fps.
The size of SDL.DLL in 1.2.7 release is about 224 KB

I found an other SDL.DLL version downloading an open source project,
http://craft.sf.net
The size of SDL.DLL in this project is about 1.23 MB.
Using this dll in my project ,the framerate is about 278 fps !!!

Which SDL version is used in this project??
Why this performance difference??

Thanx,
Gianni

Hello.

I tried this dll but in my case, it make my program crash with a
beautifull Segmentation Falt, and I did not have any probleme with the
original DLL. So Maybe they are some things different on this lib or, it
may include different things, In lmy case I use SDL_Image and others
SDL_Lib maybe the incompatibily came from this.

Since your app is running at 85fps with the 1.2.7 dll, it is almost
certainly syncronised to your refreshed reate. I’m guessing the other dll
isn’t vsyncing - perhaps they have modified it…
