This happens to me too. For me is doesn\'t seem to be the rain that is causing the lag.

I log in and start playing - everything is fine, but after a few minutes the game starts lagging (framerate drops), and thus making it impossible to do anything but typing message on the \"chat box\". And the longer I wait, the lower the framerate seems to drop. After about 10 minutes - at this point with ~0.03 FPS - I couldn\'t stand it anymore, and exited the game. I also read the output on console, but I didn\'t find anything \"paranormal\".

System specs:
AMD Athlon XP 1700+ on Abit KT7A
512 MB SDRAM
Geforce 2MX 200/400
Running linux

I should also mention that before yesterday I had no problems at all with PS.

P.S. Maybe this should be a bug-report instead?

I have a
Celeron 466 MHz
256MB RAM
GeForce 2 MX400 32 MB

And it gets me 5-25 FPS according to view. idiot\'s machine is 10 times better than mine, so it is surely not the video card...

I don\'t think it\'s my hardware that is the problem, since I was able to play before, with no less than 5 FPS (and that was very rare).

I also forgot to mention that restarting PS didn\'t solve this problem. When I first enter the world, it is still on the same FPS that it was when I exited earlier.

My connection: 256/256 kbps ADSL

But as I already said, I didn\'t experience any problems before yesterday.
