Hello! Now i'm using Wine since 2 years and i always played GTA San Andreas with Wine, together with other games. Every Wine version is getting better and better and i saw a lot of games working simply by waiting it was implemented... Wine is now IMO becoming good for new games, they are more and more supported, less things to patch... But games are working, but getting slower and slower! A few months ago i could play my game without palying it quite slowly, but now it is really slow! So i tried to clean-up my wine install and reinstall the game, but it is still slow... Is it normal? This is more a question for devs, but is something done to gain some speed? Also, what could be the problem? Thanks, kind regards! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-users/attachments/20080615/adb7aab2/attachment.htm
Run a regression test if you think there was a change that made things slow down http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting
