Is it just me or does glass affect the frame rate quite a bit?

With planes of around 2000 parts, I usually get about 30 FPS with my computer, but with the Super Cub I’m building, which has about 1700 parts, usually I only get around 20-25 FPS with it, The only difference with this compared to my other aeroplanes is that it has glass. Kinda weird.
BTW the graphics card is the limiter with my PC.
Does anyone else experience this? Or is it only me?


Also it’s my birthday today too. I’m 18. :D

    Edit:

    Ok it seems to have been something with my computer. I took all of the glass off and the frame rate increased dramatically, but then I loaded the one with glass and the frame rate was the same. So yeah. I think something must have been going on in the background on my computer.

    Well report that to @AndrewGarrison so he can optimize the glass. For me on iOS it’s working fine.

    What if you removed the glass? Do you still get the same number of frames?
