Re: weird CPU usage
I really don't understand why some of you are having this sort of problem. Perhaps it's sound-related, as I've turned off the background music. On my 2.1Ghz AMD-based system, with a "mere" 512k RAM and using WinXP Pro, I have no trouble whatsoever running Dom, Mozilla (6+ tabs), Excel, Photoshop, MS-Paint, NoteTab (text editor), CuteFTP, and Total Commander all at the same time and I never notice a slowdown, not even while Dom is processing a turn (which, unlike some reports in other threads, never takes more than a minute or two to do, even in the background, no matter how far into the game I am). And XP isn't exactly an efficient OS. The next question that begs to be asked is what OS are you folks using that are having performance issues? (If you're using a DOS-based OS such as Win98SE, that would explain most everything.)
