My 2x2GHz G5 with the old Cinema Display (1600x1024) and a 1280x1024 display does about 83 fps when run together. I get 160 fps on just the Cinema Display, but the fans don't kick in so I'm not utilizing the whole machine.

By contrast, the application does 258 fps on the 1280x1024 display in full screen, and 206 fps on the Cinema Display. So you can see that running in the screen saver module incurs significant performance penalties.

I'll have MA with multiple CPU capabilities soon, and performance will be boosted further.
