I usually do one of these with each version but I'm not sure I ever got around to .997.

I find the pseudoconsole in this version to be much more sluggish than the old traditional console. This was a fairly clean run with some decent luck on stair placement. I'm not sure that sub 3-minute times are possible nowadays.

Was this in contrast to the 5-hour monstrosity that I did for HMP / Ao100?  =P

Wait, we don't have pseudo console in 0.9.9.7 -- what are you talking about?

Console seems very slow and each move causes has delay before and after a key press. I'm running a very new computer too, but it could be Win8 if it's not he game itself...

I've not used Win8, nor do I have anything running that to test on.  Considering how each successive version of Windows reduces the power of the console emulator, I remain unsurprised that it is slowing stuff up.

Can you try ConEmu-Maximus5 to see if it helps?  At the very least that is a much better console emulator than what what Win8 can throw at it.

No change to possibly worse - my subsequent run took a minute longer with this new console

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

This is gonna make me sound old but...the delay FEELS like pipeline stalls lol. Not even possible in this modern era w/o 1e9 NOPs per actual instruction. I won't go as far as monitoring CPIs to find out though...

Not a big deal - most people play graphics these days anyway

Ah, but the Chaos Fanatic! doesn't.

Looks like you're the prime candidate for testing Win8 compatibility now.  Mwahahaha.

One last thing to test: setting of affinity to processor and/or raising the priority?  I can't think of why the pipeline slows down the way you suggests on Win8, short of assuming that somehow, the old system calls are being emulated instead of running native.
