Summary0016068: Gravity drain wave causes massive framerate drop
DescriptionMy system doesn't normally have problems handling large numbers of ships. I've seen it handle battles involving 20k+ ships without any issues... as long as gravity effects are not involved. Gravitation turrets cause issues to a lesser extent, causing minor framerate drops (usually down to 20-30FPS) in my games involving large numbers (10k+) of ships warped in to my defensive point covered by gravitation turrets, but a wave of a mere 5000 spire gravity drain ships WILL kill my computer.

In the attached file, disable the second player, go to Murdoch (center crossroad on map), use the command cmd:enable cheats, then use the cheat "ilostit, spiregravitydrain, -4000, -500, 5000, 8", and prepare for a massive framerate drop.

Relevant system specs:
AMD Quad Core A10-6700
12 GB DDR3 RAM
NVidia GeForce GTX 770
Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64 Bit
