After 90 turn I have awful slowdown of the "calculating of turn". After finishing of all activities and pushing "turn", i must wait all calculating for 1 minute or more. Only 60 turnes in hour is too long for strategic game.
"Low preferences", reinstalling of game and other my measures didn't decide problem.
Core i5 4670, 8 Gb, NVIDIA 650Ti, Win 8.1. all updates for OS and videocard are installed.
Sorry here is a later save for that save game started in v. 1.0 now at turn 197 turns are now taking around 3 minutes.

Question to Devs would any of these issues be related to what I'm seeing on the Internet? Is it because this game hasn't been optimized for AMD FX processors that I'm seeing this much of a fall off?

and could this be related to other issues I'm seeing with jumpy ship movement as game goes on and my long loading times on games w/ 50+ AI?
I think this is the key issue:"Since most of the games use the Direct3D API, AMD FX CPUs always struggle. It's a major flaw in the architecture of DirectX. It may support multi core, but everything comes down to one single thread. That's why Intel CPUs run faster than AMD FX CPUs, because Intel CPUs are built the "classic" way. No modules, complete cores, no sharing at all. Intel CPUs have a higher single core performance, a requirement for DX 9/10/11."
Bad news. Slowdowns have begun again... But now not after 90, but 290 turn. I made ticket https://esupport.stardock.com/index.php?/default_import/Tickets/Ticket/View/YMR-447-77988
Frogboy, My game is currently taking 1m 53 seconds to process a turn.
