The checkExceptionHandler() call isn't super cheap (around 0.5% CPU time on the rendering thread according to the VS profiler).

It should be good enough to only check periodically and not every single frame.

Indeed... Checking every second or so will be enough. Implemented (with gFrameTimeSeconds) for next releases.
