It seems the game has become extremely slow to load again, recently. It's gotten to the point where I can visit several other websites every time I click on "attack". Anyone else experiencing this? --LouisB3 19:48, 4 Dec 2005 (GMT) I have noticed the game is extremely slow in the evening for the past 2 days, but seems to pick up and be very fast after 09:00 GMT, of course I am usually too sleepy to play by then.

You could be suffering from Internet lag that is often caused by poor connection between your ISP and our server. That is something beyond our control but your own connection is often improved upon if you close out other bandwidth-consuming applications such as Internet browsers, file sharing programs, chat programs, etc. Sent in by player "perform23" and edited by support

Do you meet or exceed the recommended specification (User Manual). Is the game marked "high system requirement"? Read Troubleshooting > Performance (User Manual).

There are many factors that affect PC performance including both software and hardware. First, check out the minimum requirements found at http://www2.kumc.edu/ir/operationalprotocols/pc_standards.asp. Please realize these are the minimum requirements and any hardware additions especially adding memory will help boost performance significantly. Eliminating unused programs from your computer and unnecessary icons off the desktop will also increase PC performance.

Check how much free space is remaining on your C: drive by right-clicking on the C: drive icon and looking at Properties. When the amount of free space falls below 100 MB performance slows dramatically. Run the Disk Defragmenter under Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools. Defragging the hard drive may improve performance somewhat. If you are running resource intensive applications and your system has only a moderate amount of memory, performance will also be slow.

Make sure you restart you computer by choosing "Restart". Also try cleaning up files on your computers desktop by moving them to either the network or the My Documents folder. You may also try running the "Remove Spyware" application ( in the App Launcher ) to cleanup the system. Lastly, running a defrag on the system by running Disk Defragmenter from the Start--Program Files-Accessories--System Tools menu.

Hex Edit macros typically run very fast, but due to the way Hex Edit stores information about the changes made to a file, as changes are made each subsequent change takes slightly longer. This is not noticeable when editing manually but is evident to a small number of users who use a macro that modifies a large file and which is run a large number of times. This is simply due to the fact that HexEdit was originally optimised for display speed, not speed of changes.

The most common reasons apps run slowly is that you have a lot of controls or a lot of bindings on a page. Browsers (especially IE6) have significant limits on how many objects they let you create before they start "garbage collective" frequently, which slows apps down.

Most likely, it's not our software - it's MySpace. With more than 1 billion page views per day (and growing), their site can get bogged down and become slow or even unresponsive. Your best bet is to use FriendBlasterPro at non-peak times ( i.e. early morning, during the middle of the day).

For example, when you click the Bet button during a game, the ComePlay program on your computer immediately sends that message to the main server, which in turn sends it to all players in your hand. Only AFTER the message has been sent does your program start playing the animations to remove the button, make your bet move, slide the chips, play any audio, re-arrange the chips by your side, and so on.

If you are playing almost full screen but the screen is not fully maximized, try maximizing the screen by clicking the maximize window icon in the upper right hand corner. If that doesn't seem to speed things up a bit, uncheck the window effects preferences in the options menu.

i. Quit and restart, holding the space bar down while launching the game. This loads a stripped down version of the graphics, which picks things up. Read the documentation, in the Exile 3 directory. In the back is a mini-hint book for the first two chapters. This should answer most of your questions.

Remember when you first took you new computer out of the box and everything worked so well and was so fast? And now, months or years later, all these nagging errors, pop-ups, and lockups keep happening. And everything is so slooooooowwwwwww……

if you are running a cluster, do "show stat replica.cluster*" and check your cluster queue (if it's too high, your network bandwidth is too low) IBM redbooks are documents written by technical specialists within IBM. The quality of the technical information is generally very good.

Relax. Like most mechanical devices, a new watch has a break-in period that lasts for about a month or so. During this time, your watch is distributing the oil around, and is breaking in its gears. Its accuracy will vary by a few seconds during this time, but it will eventually settle down. The C.O.S.C. standard is +6/-4 seconds a day. If it's running way over that, return your watch. There are a number of TZ Classic Articles on C.O.S.C.
