Irrlicht Engine

ok, I am using c# and I want to use Microsoft visual studio c# gui's. But there is one problem.

The use of some microsoft visual studio GUI's like the menustrip slows down the frame rate tremendously.

Any soloutions?

We are using Irrlicht.NET in our products that is developed in .NET with a lot of WinForm GUI including menu strip and toolstrip. I am not sure how do you implement your main rendering loop, but we use a multithreading approach and the framerate was pretty consistent.
