    My game is taking 75% of it's time to render on my mobile phone, causing it to run around 25FPS. What does this function mean and what are some ways to improve it possibly?

    EDIT: I only have 1 light in my scene.

    AFAIK this function waits until a frame gets rendered and displayed. So it's not that the function itself is doing lots of work -- your scene is just taking a long time to render.

    Perhaps your game is rendering at a very high resolution? Phone screens have really high DPIs, so what looks like a small screen can still have more pixels than the average desktop monitor.

    I've heard that before, I've never thought about it. Do mobile games normally render at a different resolution? What may that resolution be?
