Default Re: Slow performance

I tried it. It did run, but it took a long time.

It's definitely CPU bound, running at 95-100% whenever I looked at it. So it's not a memory or hard drive issue.

I suspect it's just a big game that takes a long time to process. I can see AI time growing faster than battle time. As the game progresses not only are there more units, but each one has more options.

I've never played an SP game this big or this long, so I'm not sure this is normal. Gandalf, you're the resident expert on giant SP games. Does an hour or so sound reasonable for 600 provinces and 10 years into the game?
