Ok man...

I've had the same Graal folder from 2004, (with some 2001 in it) totalling over 100,000 files (1.24GB). The only reason I get any kind of performance related problem is because of Stefan's update (he ignored me when I made a thread about it).

What people should do is...

Set their desktop colors to 16-bit rather than 32-bit.
Defrag their hard drives.
Possibly click "Use Minimum of Resources" under options.
Use Bitmap Fonts.

Also, Graal puts graphic files on your computer so it doesn't have to download them everytime you enter a level. It's actually faster to already have them...
