Hi Robert,

We noticed another issue. When statistics bars are on - framerate slowly 
degrades. This happens with osgviewer dumptruck.osg for example. When stats 
are on draw time slowly grows and framerate starts to decrease.

Tested with latest svn (2.3.4), windows xp & vista, OSG built with VS 2008.

Regards,
Wojtek

Hi J-S,

On screen stats adds extra compute and GPU load to the rendering of
the frame, so one would expect it reduce rather than enhance frame
rate.  The fact that you have an instance where the reverse happens
suggest something odd happening with the OpenGL driver - something
like is given the boot when the OpenGL data that the OSG send changes
slightly.  Try other things to jolt the driver by toggle texturing or
lighting to see what happens.

Robert.
