    Description

      Steps to Reproduce

      n/a

      Actual Behavior

      This is in the source code.

      For reference see http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Second-Life-Viewer/MaxFPS-not-working/td-p/2362693 .. there was some confusion about why this "MaxFPS" debug setting was not having any effect in the Linden viewers.

      This value was added to the LL sources some time back, but there is apparently no corresponding code that references it. I got as far as d 'grep -d recurse -i maxfps *' to see where it occurred in the LL sources, and there was nothing to see.

      This setting is implemented in the Firestorm viewer, so perhaps it sneaked in through a merge.

      Expected Behavior

      It would be nice if this value could be removed from settings.xml to avoid confusion.
