What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.
About half normal NTSC-U frame rate with D3D as the backend. Similar thing happens under OpenGL. Noticed that if the window goes out of focus (like if you click something on your taskbar), frame rate is restored to normal. Can't play the game out of focus. Restoring focus to the window brings back the halved frame rate.
What did you expect to happen instead?
Full frame rate when the main window is in focus.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Just let the game run normally and allow the window to be out-of-focus to see a full frame rate and bring it back into focus to see a slower frame rate.
