+ | I'm using a Powerbook G4, and DF 0.28.181.40d. I have NEVER experienced ANY lag... EVER! It's absolutely awful when I try to play on my Windows PC, it seems so chunky. I tried it an the macs at school and it works great on those as well. DF certainly is more Mac-friendly than Windows-firendly! --[[User:Darkond2100|Darkond2100]] 03:48, 27 January 2010 (UTC) | ||

With the graphics-accelerated versions of 40d above, I've found that turning mouse support completely off ( [MOUSE:NO] in init.txt ) has had greater improvement in framerate than anything else I've tried. Can anyone else confirm this?

I noticed mention of small worlds. I have no doubt that they probably reduce lag, but I will argue the creation time issue. My experience so far has been that "pocket" and "smaller" sized worlds take longer to gen than "Small" and "Medium," because of the shear volume of rejected attempts in the initial creation stage. My experience is entirely with 40d and 40d9. [[User:Burlingk|Burlingk]] 01:42, 10 February 2009 (EST) | I noticed mention of small worlds.

:You don't get many rejects with the default configurations for worlds. When you start changing those, yes, rejects will happen, especially if you're trying to fit as much into a pocket sized one as you would into a small.
