- Just my notes working with Executor 1.99q and 1.99q6
-
- For some reason 1.99q6 seems MUCH slower than Executor 1.99q
- The sound slowdown is still there.
-
- I play Spaceward Ho! on a 486 DX2/66 running Linux 1.3.68, and
- I have to restart Executor about every half hour because it slows
- down like molasses. It takes upwards of 15 seconds for a menu
- to appear, and the slowdown happens gradually. I believe this is
- a problem with the Linux sound, because this does not happen under
- Windows 95. (BTW, sound under Win95 is scratchy on my machine)
-
- When I check top, executor is taking upwards of 95% of my CPU.
-
- This is all under 1.99q because 1.99q6 was too slow to be useable
- for me.
-
- Sorry I don't have a better description of what's going on.
-
- See ya!
