Summary

0005003: Some Maps Run Super Fast - Some Super Slow

Description

I have 2 maps currently saved.

One is a Medium world where I have a huge fortress with 70 dwarfs and a huge underground mining complex. It runs perefectly at 100 FPS with no slow down at all.

I made a Small world where I have 7 dwarfs and a tiny fortress. This ran at 20-30 FPS straight from starting.

I have a good Quad-core PC with 8 Gig ram. The slowdown is the same with all tile-sets and FPS settings on the small map, but perfect on the medium map.

Could this just be a random bug with the world generator?

There was a "Cave in" message as soon as the game started. Could the game be calculating cave in mechanics behind the scenes non-stop?

Thanks!

Notes
(0019272) Kumquat (reporter) 2012-01-01 12:12	There is probably an underground waterfall, that is, water in one cave level draining into a chasm and off the map in the next cavern level. dfhack can be used to reveal the map and check for such occurrence.

(0019278) Footkerchief (manager) 2012-01-02 14:40	The bug aspects of this are covered by 0000051. Aside from that, it's expected that some maps will run faster than others due to environmental features (especially falling water).
