My game freezes up every 4 seconds exactly for like 0.2 secs but runs smooth otherwise. This happens in about less than 5% of the times I play factorio and so far I guess never on the first time I run it after a reboot. I've had this happen 3 times in the last weeks since I'm playing again. Restarting factorio usually solves it, but I've had it happen twice in a row after which I just reboot my PC.

It happened now on the same save I provided in another thread, https://www.dropbox.com/s/y282arn0icxxj ... 2.zip?dl=0. I've had it happen on the start of unmodded games as well iirc (back in 0.10), it doesn't seem to matter how complex things are. I can't remember ever experiencing this in 0.9.8 when I bought factorio.

This freeze is something related to the amount of video memory in a computer. It may be resolved in 0.12 due to the VRAM optimizations done but I've never found a method to reproduce it.

If you don't mind, I'd like to move this into resolved for next release and if it still happens once 0.12 comes out please post again and let us know.

Yeah it's a good idea not to invest time in this before the long awaited 0.12 :)
I just wanted to let you guys know it's still here now in 0.11 as the old thread was getting... well, old.
