Greetings, My brother and I have started playing this game, and enjoy it a lot obviously because it's very similar to Total Annihilation. However, we've noticed a huge lag later on in playing when the level of AI is understandably high. Both of our computers are i5/i7 with 8-16GB RAM and powerful video cards. So thinking outside the box, I decided to spin up a Linux VM w/ 16GB RAM and 8 cores on my Dell PowerEdge server at home. The processors are Xeon, and I had htop running while we played the game. We experienced the same symptom. The max I saw the VM pegged at was 2 cores and 2GB RAM. I would have expected it to use all the cores flat out and gobbled up all the RAM based on how slow the game was running. Any ideas? Thanks!
The sim is CPU bound and single thread performance is very important.. The second constraint is usually RAM with big or long games. Take a read of: Server Sim Performance / Time Dilation / RAM Usage: https://wiki.palobby.com/wiki/Plane...r_Sim_Performance_/_Time_Dilation_/_RAM_Usage
