heh. yeah more than 12. maybe something vista-related.

2gb of ram, 2.4ghz dell running 32bit vista

dunno why it's lagging, but it almost seems like there's a problem drawing the boxes on the screen, they almost "flicker"

OK, def not running out of RAM then I would hope [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] And if that's a 2.4GHz Core2duo, I can't imagine it is the CPU either... similar spec to mine.

Maybe drawing the boxes is more "expensive" on Vista, what with the fancy interface - do you have Aero enabled? is "Disable Desktop Composition" checked for PokerStars?

There is an easy enough way to reduce performance impact to a quarter if need be, depending on how many sides of the box you want coloured?

Hopefully reducing the update frequency will be enough tho... unless you'd rather just have a single side highlighted on each player?

Bah! missed edit time by mere seconds [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I just had an idea to totally remove the need for highlight-refreshes unless strictly required... will experiment and hopefully post a much more CPU-kind update tomorrow.

Maybe I'll even get the super-notes thing working too - but not holding out great hopes just yet... I've got a lot of editing to do on BetPot too tomorrow.
