Quads slow things down so much..

[grump]

I found another guide in the love2d wiki and they seem to have it there as well though?

It's probably not critical in most cases and rebuilding from scratch is just easier/shorter code to write. Reusing existing resources is usually the better way to do things though, especially if you want to achieve max performance.

Ok I see, thanks. Yeah, leaving it out didn't seem to cause any problems in my code.

I also recommend losing the shitty and snappy attitude, or people might just stop giving you advice if you keep pissing them off. Just an observation.

In fact I already did. In this case I noticed something that may mislead others (the claim that "the wiki says that quads can be slow" when it doesn't say any such thing) so I thought it was opportune to put the record straight for the benefit of readers.

If you have poor performance on real device while doing so little work, I suspect the way you do it could be extremely inefficient - I could draw hundreds of sprites for no FPS drop without using a batch, if I do it from a barebones loop.
