PT3 - Slow Performance

[Sean314159]

I've always used Poker Tracker 2 and this is the first beta of Poker Tracker 3 that I have tried. The software looks really nice, but the performance is really lacking. The auto import feature seems to bring everything pretty much to a crawl. My machine specs are as follows:

- 100K Hands
- AMD 2500+
- 1 Gig DDR
- ATI Radeon 9600 PRo
- ASUS A7N8X-Deluxe (with Sound Stream Sound)

I think I preferred how Poker Tracker 2 allowed you to set the update frequency. God help you if you click the filter button while playing; it takes for ever and all of my tables wouldn't respond (4 tables) for a long while. Also, the HUD doesn't seem to respond all that well, its hit and miss as to whether the drop downs work for the stats.

Overall, I think this will be a big improvement once the performance issues are hud issues are worked out.

The next beta release will contain refresh rates for players so that stats are not refreshed after every hand which should help improve performance. The real-time auto-import uses little to no resources so that is not the issue.

Best regards,
