And as mentionned in the video, the night/day cycle was sped up at extra super speed to make its evolution visible. I'm not an engineer but I assume that must be a lot lot lot of dynamic lighting/shadows calculations per frame and that's why the 40 or 50 FPS figure was mentionned.
The way I understood it is that quite the contrary of being weak, that was a proof of the strength of an engine with an unoptimized build which performs nicely even under large stress.
So in my opinion, do not stop at that 40-50 FPS figure since I do not think it represents the engine's performance under regular conditions.
