I’m using XNA and creating a bunch of forms that roll their own ‘game loop’ to handle drawing and such. Each new form is opened on its own thread, with a subsequent Application.Run(form) to make the thread handle the messages for that form.

When I started I noticed that despite me not implementing any kind of frame limiting timing, the window drew at 60 fps. This was the number I was aiming for anyway so I left it at that.

However now I discovered that when I open multiple windows, the original 60 fps gets divided evenly between them: 2 windows 30 each, 3 20 each, etc.

I also tried a loop with Application.DoEvents instead of Application.Run, but with the same results.

Anyone know where this 60fps limit coming from, how to overcome it?
