???? Benchmarks & Performance

Dynamic SDL3 Binding: No static .obj or .dcu files required. The SDL3.dll is loaded dynamically via LoadLibrary. If the DLL is missing, the component fails gracefully.
Asynchronous Multi-Threading: The heavy math, physics, and frame-timing calculations run in a background worker thread. Only the final render command is pushed to the main thread, ensuring 0% blockage on your logic thread.
Hybrid High-Resolution Timer: Utilizes TStopwatch (QPC) for microsecond accuracy. It uses Sleep(1) for the bulk of the wait time, and a tight 2ms spinlock at the end to guarantee frame-perfect timing without context switching overhead.
FPU Exception Masking: Delphi's default FPU settings catch exceptions (like precision loss or denormals) that C-libraries like SDL generate constantly. This component explicitly masks the FPU control word (Set8087CW($133F)) at thread start, preventing massive slowdowns and random crashes.

Delphi (VCL supported, tested with modern Delphi versions)
SDL3.dll placed in the same directory as your compiled .exe (you can get it from the official SDL3 GitHub releases).

UpdateLogic(DeltaTime): Write your physics and movement code here. Runs in the background thread.
RenderEffect(ATime): Write your SDL rendering code here. Runs asynchronously in the main thread.
InitSDLResources / ShutdownSDLResources: Load and free your custom SDL textures or geometries.
