To find the FPS, you count the number of frames that occur in 1 second by having a frame counter and a time keeper:

int frames = 0;
long lastTime = System.nanoTime();

while(true) {
    //game loop
    
    frames++;
    if(System.nanoTime() - lastTime >= 1e9) { //1e9 = 1 * 10 ^ 9 = 1,000,000,000 nanoseconds = 1 second :)
        System.out.println(frames);
        frames = 0;
        lastTime += 1e9;
    }
}

Hell it’s an ArrayList. Those are fast as hell, at least for my 2D game. I do this all the time I don’t even get ONE millisecond for one frame (And this with no optimizations like don’t draw objects out of view [only the map is rendered a bit optimized]).

well 1ms would be A LOT.

I disagree… as you point out, if he can render a frame in 1 millisecond, his game is already running more than an order of magnitude faster than what is necessary for 60fps. There’s no need for somebody in that situation to optimize anything.

He said he got 1ms for 1 frame, which means it should have done all logic and drawing. The time may be inaccurate, but if I see that result I’m quite happy. However if 1ms is time to do an operation to an AL, could be problem.

Oh sorry, I mean 1 microsecond not millisecond One milisecond would be a lot for the few things I’m doing (Render BG, Render Map, Render Entites between Layer, Render foreground stuff).
