void setup() {
  frameRate(30);
}

void draw() {

  println(frameRate);
}
Description The system variable frameRate contains the approximate frame rate of a running sketch. The initial value is 10 fps and is updated with each frame. The value is averaged over several frames, and so will only be accurate after the draw function has run 5-10 times.
