there are a few hidden objects, but not too much (maybe 20-30 in this scene)
but I've checked it on a whole different project, a whole different character,
no hidden objects, and it's a pretty light character in geometry (and using the built in rig)


without <Show Scene Info> and on <RT> playback, I get 19+ FPS, with it on, it drops to around 7 FPS...

whats funny, is when I play it backwards, it goes 19FPS even with it ON...

I've tried to take the Jaiqua model, and apply some mocap on it.. it doesnt happen with her.. nor with the default man
and the default biped rig.


I've tried to freeze the geometry, delete all clusters and materials, delete all shape animation and shapes,
delete some constraints, then reapply the envelope, but still I get choppy playback..


it only runs fast again, when I delete the envelopes... so there's only the rig animated and moving...

Someone here thinks that perhaps your scene has a lot of
hidden objects, is that the case?
The Show Scene Info would be probing these objects's triangulation
and therefore defeating the advantange of hiding these.
Is this the case?

well.. at least one guy reported the same problem with it ON.. so I guess it's not just my scene..
