- on any server?
- does it cause a memory leak, the memory taken by Graal is increasing over the time (watch Graal in the task manager) ?
It doesn't matter how many icons are blinking...I only really play Era, but I played Zodiac for a while and it didn't seem to happen there.

I've asked around on Era and several other people get the same problem...lag that they never got before graal 5.

Yes, the memory taken by Graal gradually increases over time.

I have a very good computer and graal shouldn't be lagging me...

Since you claim it is Era specific and other people are experiencing this also only on Era, I'm surprised no one has posting this here.

I do have to agree though that my own server lags slightly more with v5 (seems to take up like twice as much CPU and a bit more memory when I am around the same particle effects I had in v4.

I just deleted the graal folder and installed again...it's probably a temp fix, but it's not hard to do...

although while I was doing it I found another Era-related problem...I don't think you automatically download the Era tileset when you connect.

When I connected to Era I saw only black and NPCs...I got the era tilesets from someone and manually put them in my tiles folder...but it still didn't work, so I messed around in my options and unchecked "Use filename cache" and that fixed it...I found out several people had the same problem, and I showed them what they needed to do.

What was the filename?

About the playerlist lag: still cannot see any problem on Era, does it only happen at special places / maps ?
Update: the playerlist didn't lag me, but when walking over the era map it was taking a lot of memory, will check what the problem for this is.

Playerlist up or not, the entire server and client stop responding for times upwards of 5 seconds at random intervals since the graal 5 change.

It could be a software compatibility issue as I'm on XP x64. But since other people are getting it, its hard to say. I have no logged errors for you but have seen this atleast a few times a day. There is no way Graal should be able to lock up both of my processors enough to make it pause like that.

Hmmm The problem seems to be hugh number of npcs on the era map. I have reduced the memory taken by the npc a little bit in my version, although it is still a lot. I don't have the problem of playerlist lag still though.

Stefan, you are going offtopic, this thread is not about playerlist lag

I talked to Era staff about it and someone told me they told Vulcan, but I don't know if anything has been done.

And about the lag, I turned off mass messages today, and I didn't get any lag...if that helps.
