Indeed! Amazing. Readings went off scale (using Andrews measurement
technique).

Huhh.. In contrast, here, the numbers were so similar
(to the original results I was getting) I went to
extra measures to check it was running using the
1.6.0_10 JRE! I never saw the frame rate rise
above 21.7.

I can only assume that if the _10 update is a significant
improvement, that the improvement is aimed at later
hardware* than I have. :-(

..a few minutes later - thought to recheck the
*original* code in 1.6.0_10 and it (very) occasionally
cracks 32 FPS. Mostly though it seems 'around' as fast
as it did in the 1.6.0-b105 variant.

I'm sure that this is only true on Windows and you need the latest DirectX. I think the latest version is 9.
