How to find out what's slowing the game out

Post by Henry Loenwind »

Is there a guide or something that helps you to read the internal debug data to find out what's causing the slowdown?

Or can anyone point me towards something to investigate?

My current issue: 0.16.28, modded. FPS and UPS in sync and at about 50. CPU load is at 11-13% (4-core system, ~80% idle), memory usage at ~5.5GB (~6GB physmen free) and stable. I/O Read/Write Bytes unmoving. FPS/UPS only change by about 1-2 between min and max zoom level, even when zooming into an empty piece of land.

I just don't see any bottleneck. It's not even using half a core, plenty of physical memory free, not IO-loaded, and if the GPU was the bottleneck I'd expect to see effects from zooming in/out.

Update: In the time it took me to create a forum account and write this, the FPS/UPS went down to below 40. CPU, RAM and IO are still idle.
