On my machine it takes 3 minutes to create the game, and about a minute to process the turns.

How long does it take to process turns on large maps during late game??

Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games
My game is on turn 39.
The only really large game I have numbers on is on my server. If you look at
http://www.dom3minions.com/games/PvK-e-Oceania/
Its on turn 74, started with 79 nations, and is up to 17 minutes to process a turn

Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games
Just don't play with LA Ermor on a map like that. Turn generation could be utterly insane.

Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games
Ha ha! This map was so mighty it killed my computer! OK, it was actually bad ram, but the coincidence was pretty funny.

Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games
Yeah playing with the extremes of this game has let me find out I had bad ram on one of my machines also. Kindof funny. It reminds me of something I came up with a long time ago.
Hey Boss, look at this.....
"Diagnostic software designed to maximumly test the limits of
memory, disc read/write access, keyboard and mouse inputs, the highest
video settings and sound quality all concurrently. If used on a regular
basis any changes in system performance would be instantly noticed
before degrading to the point of affecting other softwares."
It's called insert-name-of-favorite-game-here

Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games
what are the specs on your machine gandalf, knowing how its supposed to perform under those conditions might help us find our own bad ram or other bottlenecks
