I HAZ A PERFORMANCE PROBLEM

This is tough to admit, but I’m having a problem with my performance.

I’m able to recognize the bombs and the buckets, ((I’m supposed to be recognizing the bomber, too, but for some reason, it’s not showing up yet…)) but now I have a problem with speed.  You see, the object detection seems to be about 55 ms a pop.  That’s fine, if you’re just trying to find objects in an image.  Trouble is, once you add in a real time component and try to perform three separate detections, well, then you have a bit of a problem.

It’s now taking about 160-170 ms just to find the screen elements.  1/6th of a second per frame is not acceptable.

I’m going to have to take care of this fast.  I don’t know that it’s possible to play this game with a sixth of a second reaction time.
