PTW Much faster?!?

[Verto]

I bought 512 DDR for 80 bucks at Circuit City.

I'm generally happy with run times, except for game loading. Anyone else seem to pause at 38%?

That's strange. Moving units about now is worse than before for me. I have a 500mghz processor and 64 mg of RAM. . .

Good luck with that! Two years ago with 128 RAM my PC kept crashing until I went up to 256. You should upgrade.

Yeah - and the bigger the map, the longer the pause.

Pre-PTW, it always paused for me at 37%. Guess this makes PTW 1% better?

...That must be the map-drawing phase..

More RAM definitely helps.

But if PTW is really faster than vanilla Civ3, I can hardly wait for it to be released here in Brazil.
