Hi, Just off the top of my head...
* Research event propagation order and catch the event as early as possible (view before activity?) * Be sure to return true to stop propagation from your handler * Look into other methods to catch the event stream besides the onTouchEvent override My experimentation on 1.5/1.6 (many months ago) showed with a short pause (20 ms, if I recall correctly) brought frame rates to about 95% of what they were with no touch events. Thus, what your experiencing might be influenced by something else in your architecture, or perhaps one of the first bullets above.
