As the number of my forces rises over the years, I find that the game begins to lag whenever I open a division to redistribute the battalions or if, say, I want to decommission old ships. Otherwise, the game plays just as quickly as before.

Admittedly, I have some 300+ ships and 300+ battalions.

Just a note to the PTB, as well as a general query to see if others have noted this as the years pass in-game?
 
Same thing happens to me. Performance decreases naturally in later years, but the selection of divisions, change of leaders in armies, etc. also lags a lot. I wonder if decreasing that value mentioned in this thread will help with this lag and won't affect the speed when you just let the game run.

Actually, I believe the lag is the game compensating for lower FPS, since it is automatically set to change the value mentioned in that thread.
 
It could just be that the previous game went on for too long, but dropping the value to 0.5 seems to have worked very well. Will keep you posted if things get out of hand again.


EDIT: Well, it comes back. I'm beginning to think it has as much to do with the length and complication of play as anything else. (The problems get much worse when you try to raise troops during wartime, for example.)
