0007219: 29 Dwarves, fps dropped suddenly
I was running great at near 100fps and noticed it getting slow all of a sudden. Something happened that caused the fort to drop to 14fps. I only have 29 dwarves and not a lot built or going on at all. Running 40.02. Using the df starter pack on windows. i have an i5 3570k at 3.4ghz with 8gb ram. If I look at task manager, df is taking 25% cpu. If iI look at the individual cores, none of them are peaked, they all are about 25%. My total cpu usage is about 32% across all processes. total physical memory used is 4.42gb with df taking 518mb. windows 7

Is it a reclaimed/unretired fortress?

I'm not sure what happens, but if I let this save just run by itself and sit for about an hour and come back to it the fps goes back up to 100. I mean they run out of food and a few dwarfs die, but I'm not exactly sure what causes the increase in fps as I come back an hour later and it's running great.
