I've been playing on an older macbook pro. I've had the graphics settings pretty low, and have been playing with no issues for about a month. Starting yesterday, after about ten minutes logged in the game starts stuttering. Whether I'm sitting in station or in space there are several seconds of lag between me clicking or moving my mouse and the intended action. I have checked my system activity and there is nothing else using up cpu or memory and the usage by eve looks about normal, just for some reason the game is very slow and jumpy. I'm not sure whether or not this is an issue anyone else might be having, or if it's just time to save up and get a new computer.
