Now I've just made the first activity where there are only 6 particle shapes already moving on screen - revolving around in an ellipse. Strangely I'm only getting 20-30 fps and as a result the animation is not smooth. Even stranger, as soon as I touch the screen AND move my finger around the fps goes up to 50-60fps and the animation gets very smooth. I'm not doing anything to the emitter when I touch the screen. Even if I do eg add a gravitywell, I get the same increase in fps.

I really can't figure this one out. Is my app gaining a better access to system resources simply by moving my finger around than if not? I'm hoping someone might be able to help me identify what might be happening behind the scenes... ]]>
