1st
the 0.6a starting time of new game (generating economy till Mar 1 c206) is
5x faster than 0.5a
so this is big + (was taking ~12 minutes now it's only 2.5) to compare w/o EZF it takes 1.25 minute2nd
performance is way better (smoother) than previous version
but not good enough , yet
3rd
the avg fps is 50% and there're random drops to 33% plus rare drops to 25%
when comparing to game w/o EZF
while it's way better to eyes it's not optimal as those the worst drops cause little stutterit does feel like EZ factions is doing continuous updates (each frame)
and ofcourse then there are nexerelin updates
the java setup has 12-16 GB RAM dedicated just to StarSector
the logfile is saved in ramdrive (so not even slowdowns on writes caused by market updates)
plenty of CPU cores available ... (maybe EZfaction could put something on additional thread(s) ?)
note: i run Grand Sector with 2x map and increased 4x amount of star systems too
