[pygame] pygame 1.8 - problem with framerate

["Pedro Vieira" <pesvieira@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

I updated
the version of pygame, 1.7.1 to 1.8, and I had problem with that. My
game started to become very slow, only by exchanging version. I was
looking to see what was happening and saw that the fps was very low. I
created a simple code to test and I saw that for the same code, ran on
both versions, there is a big difference in FPS. What may be happening?

Thank you.


The code that I used for test is below:

import pygame

class Game:
        screen = None
        screen_size = None
        run = True

        def __init__( self, size, fullscreen):
                pygame.init()
                flags = pygame.DOUBLEBUF
                if fullscreen:
                        flags = (pygame.FULLSCREEN | pygame.DOUBLEBUF | pygame.HWSURFACE)
                self.screen = pygame.display.set_mode( size, flags )

        def handle_events( self ):
                for event in pygame.event.get():
                        if ((event.type == pygame.KEYDOWN)or(event.type == pygame.KEYUP)):
                                if (event.key == pygame.K_ESCAPE):
                                        self.run = False

        def loop( self ):
                clock = pygame.time.Clock()
                while (self.run):
                        clock.tick()
                        print clock.get_fps()
                        self.screen.fill((255,255,255))

                       self.handle_events()
                       pygame.display.flip()


game = Game((1024,768), 1)
game.loop()
