Why is runescape going slow for me?

Honestly, why is runescape going slow for me?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've NEVER encountered this problem in the 4 years i've been playing RS. Even when my computer was bogged down with viruses and spyware, Runescape still ran fine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why does it randomly decided to act up?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By acting up I mean, TAKING FOREVER to do anything. 2-5 seconds to move a sqaure, 6-10 seconds for a bank pin number to verify, 3-7 seconds for a private message (I sent) to appear on my screen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What is this? No matter where I go in the runescape world, things are going slow. It's almost as if im playing on dial up but im not. Im still running off my cable router.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm running about 3-4 processes right now and im using the Runescape client (Jagex approved) and it's still going slow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why I ask you, Why?

Could be down to your internet connection, how busy the server you are on is, what those other processes on your PC are doing, state of your graphics card, how much available memory you have - etc etc

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It happens to us all

Should things correct themselves soon? This has been ongoing for 3 days now and I've never run into this problem, as i've said, in the 5 years i've been playing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No idea about my connection

 

 

 

Card shouldnt be malfunctioning, it's rather new.

 

 

 

Ram usage? All I had was explorer[Caution: ExecutableFile] the client and 2 other small processes (just things in my status bar that give me alertS)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I dont see why this is doing something. Last week I could run Firefox, a runescape client that used ALOT of memory, windows media player, my firewall, and two instant messaging programs without ANY problems

Sounds like you need to do some system checkups and make sure you have not got any trojans / spywear that are using up your resources

i have been having the same problems with laggy..choppy actions also my runescape client will shut down without warning at times....this just started a little while ago when runecsape did that big update

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

edit: i have 2 gig ram running a p4 2.6ghz..when playing i shut down all systray items except yahoo messenger and have nothing else open..my cpu usage is below 50% so it is not my system...if i run thru IE or firefox i have no problems

Maybe something in their new update, to the system or something, is eating up our resources (people with lesser resourceS)

Could well be - Jagex would not be the firs to release software updates with a couple of bugs still in it awaiting discovery by the user community. :lol:

My guess would be that your memory is getting used up, or Your Internet service provider is having problems.

Runescape has also been slow/laggy for me lately... Which is a huge disappointment because it really slows down whatever I'm trying to do.

I'd say it's my internet over anything else. Everyone in my family whoes on the same network (same router) seems to be having issuses

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

try defragmenting your computer that might work

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'll give it a go, thanks
