Bad lag after 110-120 turns?

Hey, this is why I keep a Playboy close to me.

One of my sigs from Dominions 1......

-- Do not curse the time it takes for a turn to process in Dominions. It
keeps us from losing so many players to starvation or exploded bladders.
(this game is WAY too addictive)

Could be some form of memory leak...

After some alt-tabbing DOM2 reserves up to 300 megs virtual memory on my machine, while acutally using about 140 megs (max. usage is 170 megs say W2k).
(roundabout values .. will check & write the values down if someone cares..)

There was even one incident when Win told me there was too little virtual mem - and I have 384 installed and the same amount set up as fixed swap file... .

Wonder why DOM2 wants that much virtual memory ..

Excessive Swapping could be the cause for the slowdown, after all.

I am at a bit over turn 3010, right now I am waiting on a major battle, it has stalled a few times to the point I'm not sure if it is just taking a long lagging time or if it has broken down without popping up an error.
