Default Re: Ship AIs that talk to each other

I have an older model CPU: An AMD 3200+ that runs at a frequency of 2 Ghz. That's two billion instructions per second.

It's up to the programmer to do speed optimizations where appropriate, which is usually handled by profiling the code and then tightening up the sections that take up the most time.

It could just as easily be the way the program parses text files that is causing it to run slowly. But again, without actually profiling the code, it's all just speculation.
