Hey all.

I have been traveling for about 4 weeks and last night was my first real chance to crank up my accounts. I notice right off the bat that something was not right.

I use link shell extension method to run multiple client mostly for the save settings since I use 3x24" monitors and each account opens the same way each time. Last night i notice major performance issues and slow down mostly when the gave was changing ares (jumping gates) or I opened a window that needed to query data i.e market, corp search, pilot info.

I was running 4 clients and had crashes on all of them over a 5 hour period. Sometimes the client would time out and "catch backup" 20-30 seconds later. the crashes happen most when I need to query large databases like regional market or assets/contacts. The issues happens constantly through out the time i was on last night on all clients.

I don't know if there were issues last might with EVE or if it is a multiple client issue, or a link shell issue. Can anyone provide trouble shooting steps to help me narrow things down. First thing I am going to try is to run 4 accounts today from one launcher to see if there are any issues. also I will probably clear cache items on all accounts to see if that helps any.

appreciate any time and effort you guys can give to run down the issue.

Also for those that ask - I use link shell extension as when i started running multiple clients last year that is where my research point to. I have never had a problem with it and all my accounts and characters open in the save state without having to reconfigure any setting or window. all in game setting for each account remain the same from session to session. If there is a better way I am all ears.


I think this might have happen due to internet issues on the east coast. I have been playing all afternoon with out issues.
