[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 369608] Re: Runs unplayably slow

[Spindizzy]

Okay... I must be stupid.  I compiled with the following:

% make distclean
% ./configure --prefix=~/Desktop/myWarzone22b2 --enable-debug=profile
% make
% make install

Then I ran the game in a terminal

% cd ~/Desktop/myWarzone22b2/bin
% warzone2100

And waited for it to get slow, which it eventually did.  I let it run
for at least another 10 minutes (sorry, got distracted), saved the game,
and carefully shut down through the 'quit' menus.  So... there ought to
be a gmon.out file around here SOMEWHERE... Right?

I eventually did this:

% sudo find / -name 'gmon.*'

The only file reported was the gmon.h file.

What am I missing?  I've tried this with debugprofile as well.  I've
checked the output from make to see that the -pg argument was present,
it was.  I grep'ed the code to see if there was a 'profile' argument, I
didn't see one.

Help?

Bug description:
Binary package hint: warzone2100

Prior to installing Jaunty, the game was quite playable, with the only problems showing up with a slight lag in 8 player skirmish towards the end of the game when there's lots of units.

After installing Jaunty, even a two player skirmish quickly becomes unplayable, with updates every 2-5 seconds.  The more players, the later in the game, the more lag.

This happens both with the Jaunty 2.1.3 package, and with a fresh compile of 2.2 beta 1.

Description:	Ubuntu 9.04
Release:	9.04

warzone2100:
  Installed: 2.1.3-1
  Candidate: 2.1.3-1
  Version table:
 *** 2.1.3-1 0

Granted, this is an old IBM Thinkpad T40, but prior to Jaunty, the game ran very well.
