Galaxy Forge D:<

Suddenly INCREDIBLY LAGGY

from Stardock Forums

I start off with a sun, three planets. Two phase lanes.

 

I add in 12 worlds and its like the application is trying to render an atom bomb, nano particle by nano particle.

 

I recently updated to the newest microsoft framework 4.0. Is this why it exploded?

Sounds like a problem with your local machine or something (an update? something in the background consuming resources, like a spyware scanner?) rather than something to do with Galaxy Forge.

Or does this happen if and only if you try to add those specific worlds and suns to Galaxy Forge?

When I run GForge, My memory usage stays around 37% out of 8gb.. .. neither of my six cores ever goes above 15%. System resources are simply no problem. My 3x sli'd GT470's dont break a sweat. None of my machine breaks a sweat. Yet it lags. I do not comprehend why.

Yeah, that's very weird. The only other thing I can think of is that there might be a problem with how your .NET is installed (which GalaxyForge depends on). If I were you and I had the time, I'd uninstall .NET and GalaxyForge, reboot, and reinstall both... problem is, .NET is very large and takes a long time to download, so I'm not sure you'd want to go into that, especially since it's not guaranteed to solve the problem. I've heard that there've been some problems with .NET updates recently... perhaps going to version 4.0 was what's been causing your problem. (But no guarantees!)
