Is there is limit when using SetSpritePriority?

I used a value of 900 for some sprites and suddenly the refresh turned slow and sloppy.

I changed 900 to 50 and everything move ssmooth again.

The docs do not specifiy any limit.

I would assume that since the argument is an int it takes the range of int values. Whether negative numbers would work or not I don't know. It would be interesting to try to set them to a very high number and see if it affects the speed proportionately.

That would suggest that the drawing function goes through every number, up until the highest you've specified, and checks to see if a sprite exists and needs to be drawn.
