Could you describe what is lagging? If you could record a video that would be great. Are any of the other GNOME Games having performance problems?

It takes some time until the empty squares are released.
I have to wait about 1/3 second before I can play on...

Video:

Unfortunately it seems quite normal on the video...but IT IS far too slow.

Is this only occurring on large custom board sizes? Has it only started occurring with a recent update?

It's also lagging at size "Big", but it fells quite normal on size "Medium".

It started after upgrading to Ubuntu Oneiric...

Also happening in gnomine3.3.5 in 12.04. The delay is increasingly noticeable as the board size increases.

Not sure why this was marked incomplete. Please let me know if there's anything else needed, and I will try and provide - this is not a show stopper however!

Unfortunately, that's pure Bull-youknowwhat. Here's why:

1. People who like to play it, play against the clock. No way to approach old scores.
2. It's just not fun any more.

Fix it. Or let it die a natural death.

I actually meant that this was not a showstopper for the whole of Ubuntu. Clearly it spoils the game. That said, it has been fixed for me for a while now - I'm on 12.10 now so I can't remember when it was sorted.

Ah! Yes - don't hold up all of Ubuntu.

I had just updated to 12.04 when the slow--bug turned up.
I can update.

Thanks,
Mark

I have marked as 'fix released' as the problem is gone in 12.10. Not sure if this is the correct thing to do as I don't know how it was fixed.
