That's a truly unfair measurement.
If the computer is sped up to reach 60fps, the performance loss will be
proportional, not fixed as you calculated it. Using bc:
14.4/15.8 (To calculate the percentage difference)
0.911329240506392113924
Now, taking that figure (I'll keep using 14.4/15.8) and multiplying that
times 60.0 fps, bc gives me:
54.68354430379746835440
Which, when one looks at it, is a very reasonable performance loss indeed.
Not quite a 9% loss, and at 60fps it only reduced things to around
54.68fps, not all the way down to 43.82fps, I'm sorry. :-)
