Observation - battle-recorder

[BliTzTank]

I've noticed something about battlerecorder.
if I play a live game with all high settings 4x AA & average 40-100fps....typcially 40-60.

Then DL the battle-recorder & watch it, with all the action my FPS never drops below 70 in the battlerecorder.

Why is this? Why does BR run better than the actual live gameplay?
is it the fact that its not 1st person or something?

Yes..

Erm, that's not a suitable answer, dude.

I dunno.

I guess it's because live play is being generated in real time and BR videos are loaded before you watch them =/ There is less going on at the same time so you get better performance.

It should take less system overhead to render everything through BR then a game live (real time).
