as relevant as this post may-be to WU, it's geared for WO.
sorry about that. reposted it here - http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/154466-latency-when-booting-client-before-login/

Hi, the answer is slightly obvious but i'd like to see it written.
When i boot Wurm Online (stable version and to a slightly lesser degree, the unstable), my system's latency shoots up. 
the mouse moves like it's in treacle. This is before you log in. 

I have an 8 thread AMD FX.
For my colleague, who has a modern i7, this also occurs.
however, on my quad core i7 laptop (2011 tek / i7-840QM) there is no lag at all. 

Does this simply mean that our game is in no way optimised for anything with more than 4 cores/threads?
