I can usually get at least 200 FPS (which is my cap, 2.4 ghz processor) when doing a fresh embark, but my most recent embark will not go above 50 FPS.  What could cause this certain embark to be so much slower?  There doesn't appear to be anything special going on, but I haven't seen the caverns or what's happening below.  (A dead magma man did show up on the creatures list before I had scouted the caverns and found lava.)  Also, this was the first embark where I actually inspected the world history in legends mode before starting, might this have anything to do with the unusually low frame rate?

Download the utility runesmith and see whats down under.

I play on Linux so I've given up on most of the utilities out there.

On a side note it would be awesome if Toady ever creates an API of sorts which will allow interfacing to the game without memory hacks.

Runesmith can work with linux, you need to follow a guide thing to get it to work.

Did you get a cavern collapse message at embark? Even if you didnt, you've probably got a collapsed lake draining into some part of the caverns. Not sure if DFhack works for linux, but you could check that out.

Check your surface map and hope you see adamantine.

If you go down to the caverns, you'll most likely find... something interesting.

There might be a demonic fortress underneath you. Check your wealth - if there's an absurd amount of architectural wealth, there's going to be a nice hall o' slade down there for you.
