Hi,
my cpu is 100% (PIV 3.0 HTT + 1G RAM) and it seems a little bit slow. It seems that sl is good at media(2d) playing, but not good enough at 3d. maybe introducing directx with GPU support will solve the problem.

Actually, it’s not actual 3D. Just 3D Simulation (graphics + math)….
>>it seems a little bit slow.
Yes. it’s true.. Hopefully, it will be better soon…

My CPU is only at 40%(AMD 2Ghz 2G Ram).
The tea pot is rotating at a decent clip, though a bit jerky at times, and some minor problems with back face culling in the spout, but it’s not too bad.
It looks like Gouraud Shading, which isn’t too taxing on the CPU, so the spped could probably be faster if the Author wanted.
On the whole, pretty good. BTW, it’s ALL SIMULATED 3D, you can’t get real 3D in a computer.
