i agree. Could we at least get some sort of response from CCP so we could know at least when problem will be fixed?

Confirming the problem gets worse longer the client has been online. Also large amount of people on a channel makes the lag horribad.

Stats:

nvidia geforce 9400



The problem, and level of lag, stems from the amount of text on the screen, and in the chat buffers. When you log, the buffer is erased, therefore the lag is reduced because of less text to render. However you can close all you chat channels, sit in an empty system, and do a D-Scan with no filters and you get the SAME lag. Just do Ctl-F to display your FPS monitor. Then do a dscan with no filters. Do it in a system with hundreds of pos modules within range, adn you'll see your whole client freeze.

I have not been able to find anything that reduces the lag. It's in the font, or the font renderer.

Same here - as longer I play, as worse it becomes.
