IDEAS FOR RYZOM

for the very reason that windows was a resource hog, i moved to a linux OS, and now i only use (with several memory intensive programs running at once) at most 1.9 GB of a total of 8 GB memory...i also have a dual core CPU, and i have a decent video card...so this is really frustrating...now, i dont run anything but ryzom when i log on to the server, so its not a matter of cpu or memory conflict, i really do think it is an issue of too many effects or sounds being called at one time, and im sure some fat being trimmed would not be a bad thing...it only happens during spells, other particle effects dont have the same problem, and there are many particle effects running all around even just on Silan...its only the spells cast by my PC, or spells cast by enemies that casue this burst of resource hogging...it eventually dies down again, but it can completely render movement impossible if several spell capable mobs attack at one time...this has caused me to die on a number of occaisions because i could not move at all...
