raids fps issue

the issue i found is that my fps goes to out the window when in a raid of 10+ ppl, perfect example and what got me onto the issue is doing AV, my fps slowly drops as the party grew, hits 40 raid and my fps goes from the normal 80 or so, to 20 or below, changing to just player shown tab, puts my fps back where it should be.

Yeah think the new version knocks that back a bit. I haven't personally done a high level raid yet to compare with the old version but hopefully tomorrow will be back to 25 man. Was gonna do something tonight but where the server was down Tuesday the people we regularly raid with had their own runs to reschedule so we just did a 10 man and I definitely had no problems there.

Okay... have you done a clean install as per the instructions in the FAQ regarding slow frame rates? http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=21716

Okay.

I do think there's still an issue in raid buffs for some players which is an area of the event engine I haven't updated with the new code design yet so the pattern you're describing may well be exactly that... the more people in the raid, the more raid buffs it has to track and the greater the impact on the garbage collector which I can say with fair certainty is known to be broken in 3.1.2 -- I'm hoping to be able to re-write the buff engine (for the forth time now /sigh) this weekend and with a little luck will get a new update out with that Sunday.

sounds good, i used to use MirageUI, but Mirage himself got recruited by champions online so his mode died, this has got to be the best UI addon i've used in a while, and the fact u actually listen to ppl and there issues is a major plus.

keep up the good work, props to u and a props to ur addon

Would cutting down the display of buffs help out as I still use the max buff display?

I might help some... but probably not a whole lot as it still scans and loads the aura data which is the more expensive part of it.
