Mudlet - Forum

I have used Mudlet 2.1 for about 8 months with a multiple mini console/containers etc.Although I have been careful to minimize triggers and whatnot overall I find the performance to be sluggish and I suspect my GUI is the culprit. I was recently testing versus tintin, and the performance is not comparable.

At a bare minimum I need a main window, chat window, and a dump window (for information captures etc). I also need to be able to jump back and forth from an OSX box to a Windows box. Both computers have quad core I7/Xeon CPU's 16GB+ memory and ATI Radeon 5870, so computer performance should not be an issue.

From a performance point of view, what is the fastest current GUI method I can use for a 3 window setup?

Also, is it time to shift to 3.0, or 2.1 still better for performance. Thanks.

What are you seeing an issue with? Simple chat capture us very fast and isn't an issue.

Well come on - you are comparing oranges and apples if you are comparing TinTin++ and Mudlet - the former is a 'C' Text Console based application whereas the latter is a GUI one written in C++ and with a Lua subsystem built-in (not surprisingly, the former also compiles a lot faster...). I personally started out with TinTin++ (you might notice my Moniker on that client's forums as well ) but I'd say if it is a GUI environment you want, with a detachable map or other windows that you can plonk on a second screen (if you use that option) then Mudlet is the client you want - and we are gradually nailing down the biggest undocumented software features so that we can get a version 3.0.0 release out to you as soon as we can get past some individual real-life "other matters" - honest.
