This manuscript investigates the relationships among various performance metrics in a virtual reality (VR), namely frames per second (FPS), latency, batches, and the number of triangles (tris) and vertices (verts). The study aims to uncover correlations and directional associations between these metrics, shedding light on their impact on VR performance. The findings reveal a significant correlation between FPS and latency, albeit in opposite directions. Higher FPS values are associated with reduced latency, indicating that a smoother visual experience is accompanied by shorter delays in the VR. Conversely, lower FPS values are linked to increased latency, suggesting a potential degradation in overall system responsiveness. Additionally, a strong correlation is observed between latency and batches processed. This finding implies that latency has a direct impact on the system's ability to efficiently process and render objects within VR. Furthermore, a positive correlation is identified between the number of batches and the values of tris and verts. This relationship suggests that higher batch counts are associated with larger quantities of triangles and vertices, reflecting a more complex scene rendering process. Consequently, the performance of VR may be influenced by the density and intricacy of the virtual environments, as indicated by these metrics.
