What is your GPU ?

Is it possible that you have 2 GPU (internal video chipset and video card) ? (same question for RoundTabler)

Turning off planet rotation was helpful for me, but nothing else was. Performance is much better now though. Couldn't get that gadget to find my gpu >_<

Can you install a win7 widget called "GPU observer" (http://download.orbmu2k.de/download.php?id=49) and check if you see, on GW :

- 100% GPU occupation.
- ram full.

?

Yes. I put everything I could at 0, it didn't help.

numbers are normal. Easier for debug.

Should I be seeing actual planet names or just numbers in GW?
I do not know which one is normal.

The CPU is not really a concern. It stop consuming it in game or if you switch the tab.

Poor zoom performance is the problem, and I have to idea why, it run like a charm here.

Removing/reducing the stars and/or planet rotation has a significant impact on my processor use. Its just one of the cores, but it can matter a lot: from 20% t0 2% use (without zooming). When zooming the effect is less measurable, from ~27% fo ~20%.

Turing off anti aliasing had a minor (~10% reduction) effect on CPU usage, but it still spikes when I zoom (like before).

Nothing else made a difference.

- Added an Setting menu for GW. It's in the setting menu on top.

You can change all the factions color on the map, the transparency and the numbers of stars.
For those who have performance problems, try disabling AA and reducing the amount of stars. Tell me what is working or not.

- Reinforcements panel is active server-side.

It's quite untested, please give me reports !

On the game side :

- Auto-recall on idling : You are recalling if your ACU doesn't move or build in the first 60 seconds.
