I know there used to be an option to show FPS at all times in an earlier version and I know F3 still shows it now but only while you hold F3.

I tried this F3 + alt + F3 technique but (at least on my macbook pro) I couldn't get that to work. Any other suggestions?

    Heh, you had first-person-shooter as a tag - I presume this was due to a tag synonym of fps?

Hold F3, press F10, release F3, press F10 again. It will show all the info (FPS, position, chunk updates, etc.) on the screen without having to hold a button. To get rid of it, press F3 again.

  • Perfect! Is that mac specific or does it work in any OS? Commented Jan 15, 2011 at 18:48

    It works in Windows, wouldn't know about anything else, but it probably does.

    Just a note: you won't have to press F10 with F3 you just have to press F3
