Hi guys. since the update from yesterday, my fps got really bad, like 5fps or something, when looking at the technology screen compared to how it was before. previously i got around 20-30, or at least enough that i didn't wonder that something was amiss. 

i normally use the 'simple' settings and hadn't had any problems like this with previous versions (last time i played was around a month ago, whatever version that was) it's also a bit slower in the galaxy map it seems, like normally i wouldn't notice it feelign laggy until i had a large map unlocked but i was seeing it hanging up even on turn 10 and in general while i'm scrolling it doesn't feel as smooth, and sometimes it chugs quite a bit when i transition from system to galaxy view and back.

 i tried 'fast' and 'fastest' settings and that didn't seem to help. interestingly, my fps in the space battles is fine on simple setting! and the transitions in and out from the systems to the galaxy does seem to work better sometimes than others, regardless of the map state. it's a bit strange.

just curious if anyone else noticed this! i feel like maybe it is something to do with those new sort of graphical background drawings in the middle of the tech tree as that seems to be the only major change there

my system is pretty old , 650GTX, so i'm not expecting blazing performance but it was an immediately noticeable degradation in fps for me on this version.

cheers
