You're not the only one. xexecrist had the same problem with memory overuse, even on single player. Either there is a mod causing a problem (every time checks value around chunks and that makes you freeze) or minecraft engine has reached its limits.

Not using any texture packs. Tried once that is 4x4 but it did no difference. Also laucher settings were changed and tested. Problem is we get lag-spikes over time. If you disconnect and reconnect everything works nice and smooth for about 1-5 minutes and then when you try to move around fps keeps dropping. If you go totaly to the new generated place everything works fine. Untill you start to do anything with machines and power. As far as we can feel - there must be never ending loop in some code or script and it makes you lag as hell. + Chunk updates act weird. You get 400 chunk updates and everything is fine, you get 0-1 chunk updates - fps 0-1. Sometimes its opposite. As for server, it rarely get error about "Time or overloaded" thats not the case. I think the fault must be in objects (machines or energy cubes or universal wiring)

Dear forumers, Since the update (when IC2 gone and began a new era of Big Dig), I and few friends of mine started to get huge fps drops on our server. When you spawn its ok but after building few technical things, we get fps drop. First problem was wind generators. 5 or more of them was a huge problem. Later the possible problem appeared with universal cables. Next possible thing was Obsidian chests. Every time you run across one you get a lag spike and later fps drops. We tried to remove things, re-installed big dig pack, tried to generate new maps. It helped but not for long. After a while playing becomes painfull rather than enjoyable. This problem we experienced on with Big Dig pack. Voltz, Tekkit never had such problems as we tested them. I'm running 64-bit java / Core-i3-380M / 4GB / AMD Radeon HD6550M / 7 Ultimate x64/ Single player or "medium" or "low" settings gives about 30-50 fps. Multiplayer even on "tiny" settings works from 30-40 and after about 20-30 mins drops to 1-3 fps. All the time. And i'm not the only one. Few of players run beast PCs and yet they still manage to get fps drops. Any ideas?

Thank you, that's good to know. Well now only closes problem we have left - how to deal with electrical engine. It refuses to accept any kind of wires. Also how voltage from Energy Cube's affects machines

Already checked that out. Forum was the last place to ask and find some "advanced" information :)

Speaking about energy cubes and windmill we managed somehow to get further, but thats it. Does the same wires power Smelter/Compressor/etc machines?

Thank you for information. Good to know that someone also is interested in this. Could you link us to that thread? It would be best to unite :)

P.S. Coal generator is also missing.

Dear Big Dig, Since the new series of updates and removal of Industrial Craft 2, we're experiencing a lot of troubles to understand how now everything works. Either there are new items that must somehow work as a "missing link" or there are missing a lot of items. For example as part of Voltz pack - battery box is missing. Is there any other way to collect electricity? Also, why there exists Electrical Engine if it refuses to be accept any electricity or wiring. We're 3 people on private server and we're confused. The only option to find any decent information about what's happening and how things work is this forum. Wikipedia / YouTube does not supply proper information about what is in Big Dig. Even presented Mekanism mod by DireWolf20 is different that we have in Big Dig. Thank you for reading this post. P.S. Coal generator is also missing.
