[Wine] Re: wine causing system slowdown

[andrewyates]

I've patched wine 1.1.13 with the nvidia bug and preloader patches, and while it takes longer for the game to slow down and the system slowdown isn't as bad, it still happens.

I have gotten the OUT_OF_MEMORY errors before, but that causes a crash, whereas this brings everything running to a halt. I originally thought it was an EVE bug, but then thought it might be a wine/64bit bug because it also happened with RA3. I'm now wondering if it may be a bug that happens to show up in both of them, because of this output (the line about software emulation, in particular):

I do remember having this bug several times with my 32bit install, but it didn't occur nearly as much as it is now; it occurred maybe two dozen times over a year of use, whereas this has occurred dozens of times in two weeks.

I suppose this should be moved to the EVE appdb entry, unless you're aware of anything that would indicate it isn't game-specific?
