[quote user="Maerius"]I don't see any locking mechanisms in, for example, GraphicsDevice.CreateTexture(), so it could be convenient to assume that the "thread-safety" of XNA comes out of D3DCREATE_MULTITHREADED flag, but there is no excuse for Xbox (which ignores this flag).[/quote] Not sure what method you mean by ...

There are examples of loading content from another thread while ...

Are you inheriting from DrawableGameComponent in your new class? If you're not sure, start simple with an empty XNA Game Project and add a new class.

My current project is required to load and unload significant amounts of content, and I am seeing a significant performance issue once enough loads and unloads have occurred. Specifically, inside GraphicsDevice there is an internal Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics.DeviceResourceManager class, which contains a dictionary of ResourceData structs ...

[quote user="Focus"]I know you can set the size of the window changing the PreferedBackBufferWidth and Height, but you cannot actually change its position, which feels bad for me. I guess I'll use that "hack" provided before, cause I really need to set the position under a certain panel, cause moving all the system into ...

For the record, I can confirm the similar behavior on my MacBook's Intel 965 Express chipset, driver version 6.14.10.4833.
