You said you're not using any background images, so are you using picwins? If not, it's very possible it's unrelated to this bug. If your memory usage is the same then it almost certainly is unrelated, in which case it probably deserves its own thread. Assuming it isn't related to the image issue all I can say is that it definitely isn't a problem for everyone. I've got a couple of very mediocre systems that show no slowdown after hours or days of running. Spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and stupid comments are intentional.

Originally Posted By: Khaled I changed the bitmap loading method in mIRC 6.31 so that it no longer used video card memory (or at least, tried to avoid it). This resolved the background picture issue. However, it has clearly had an effect on display speed. ... which made me think that maybe it was related. My reply was to Khaled, not Riamus2 or foshizzle or anyone else. Maybe he should clarify whether he meant display in general or picwins only.

Do you want me to take a polygraph test? Do you think I'm conspiring something? If you look carefully at this reply above, you can clearly see where I stated... Originally Posted By: RoCk the Conspirator Well I didn't test for memory usage, because the whole point of my reply, was that there was a significant difference in display speed when the two different versions were tested under the exact same conditions. I know there will be differences between versions, but this is a comparison of 6.3 and 6.31, not 5.9 and 6.31.
