I have similar issues with slowness of the game. I believe it's memory related too. My system is older and I have 4GB of RAM. I get so much disk thrash that I wait very long times to move around the map, even playing on a Small map with all options set to minimum. Exposing a new star causes lots of disk thrash and creates a pause. As the game goes just clicking another section of the minmap causes thrash and a very long wait time. It seems to get worse as the game goes on. I'v

OK will do when I get some time.

I am getting a huge amount of disk swapping which slows the game down a massive amount and makes it almost unplayable. I have 4GB RAM. The machine is probably 3-4 years old with Win7 64 bit. I'm hoping there will be significant memory optimisation in the next beta. Many wonderful strategy games released in recent year or two play just fine on my machine.
