('not drawing' means that only the physics calulations are done, but no pygame drawing)

Please Note: The tests were done with Python, and box2d's implementation with SWIG might have an edge on chipmunk's CTypes bindings.


Info: 
   - Tested with Python 2.5, and the latest engine releases as of March 17., 2008
   - Tested by Joshua Minor and Chris Hager, March 17., 2008
   - Source Codes: http://svn2.assembla.com/svn/elements/speedtest/
   - In test3, 4, 5 and 6, the FPS are captured to the console all 2 seconds
   - by pressing "1", 25 balls will be added and the element count printed to console
