Have a public URL? Would love to add it to a test suite to help find pathological performance cases.

You can load any game written in BYOND in FireFox and have the performance issues show almost immediately.

But it's especially egregious in mine and I don't know why, as I've done almost nothing besides add a few basic extensions to the base engine to create a somewhat-usable 2D Second Life-esque platform (with far more expansion capability) and FF just dogs on it. Space Station 13 REALLY makes the problems stand out.

A URL to something that shows the problem really would be useful here. I can profile and all that, but it would be good to be profiling something that actually shows the problem.
Tell ya what, give me a few hours to unwind from my gig this morning and I'll see if I can't get my old server actually up and online and port-forwarded. If I can (this assumes I actually have spare ports on the router) I'll send you the link, as I see that No-IP just sent me a renewal notice for the game's domain name anyways.
Looking for my spare LCD so I can actually see what I'm doing, on top of mining out a huge garnet pocket. Gimme some time!
