As long as you're not including sofware rendering, I can easily believe
you.

I don't know exactly, but I suppose something that's similar to how
Fenfire would stress the interface. Perhaps a "Fenfire demo" that builds a
scene like we would in reality and then animates it to see how
much resources it takes.

Right, was one of the requirements to have as few JNI calls per frame as
possible? And was this a reason why none of the wrappers would do, as
they concentrate on games? Perhaps that part of Fenfire could find its way
to one of the other wrappers.
