3.84R3 runs EXTREMELY slow.

[Ilya]

Hello everyone! Thanks for the new version. I've got a problem with it. It really runs veeery slow. At speed value 1 I get 1 bahn-second per 3 or 4 real seconds (!), depending on how much trains are running on the screen the same time. For me it seems double strange as I've got a modern computer (Celeron 2200MHz) and didn't suspect any troubles with 3.84r2 and older versions.
I've tried some different fps values, but whatever value I set, it's no effect.

I've also noticed that...

But working with signals is much faster than with 3.84 r2...

But in my opinion, Version r3 is to slow, so I use r2 still, because I've not noticed the often mentioned problem with the slw signal menus...

You get to this option when you click on the speed value. Also disabling the Windows Timer could give additional speedup.

Yes, I've tried that trick. Do I set either 5000 or 1, nothing changes.

P.S.BTW I prefer English version... don't know why, but maybe it became 'home' to me and I'm too lazy to learn another hotkeys etc. )))

How many trains are running there?

Then, the CPU should not be the reason. It looks more like a problem of multi threading. When you run WinXP or Vista, then try to set the compatibility to "Win2000" for BAHN.

Hello Jan!
I've got the problem even if I place 2-3 trains to run on the 'startup circle'.

BTW, I'm afraid of trying what's gonna be after opening such big layout as wn "Regio" )))
