Splint was pleased with writing a story lately. He had a fine drink lately. He has been irritated by the sun lately. He madea satisfying aquisition lately. He stopped caring about continuity snarls recently. He has regained a small measure of sanity recently. He lost soldiers named after friends to tragedy recently. He suffered a savage mug-beating recently.

...

Corai has been pleased recently, he has seen pure win recently. He has taken joy in other's distaste. He has done insane things in PMs recently. He has done this wrong recently.

Well, we could put two and two together and write a book: "The Shit that Hans and Max Did: You Won't Believe This Shit."

Okay, I'm all caught up with the stories and incidentally of the opinion that we desperately need to share our story notes with each other occasionally, in light of the fact that we seemingly, impossibly, have more distinct canons than authours :V

It's not written for multicore machines because multicore machines didn't exist when this was first being written. What you can do is massively overclock one core to within an inch of its life and have a great cooling setup, and set DF's processor affinity to that core, and its priority to High.

That way you should get ~300 dwarves running at 70-100fps comfortably. It'd cost you money in electricity though!

I'd like to add multithreading to the list of things that we please do not bring up.

TO LATE :-P
anyways revamping the smithing industry atm (have gotten 1 armorsmith to legendary he is busy banging out adamantine armor atm, much to fishers delight, i can see her zippign back and forth from the danger room to the forges and back lol, sorry splint but i think i'm buildign a backlog of enormous proportions (so far there are about 450 pieces of armor to be made, pray i don't get to the clothing industry before the year is up ;-), as it is you seem to have trouble approving the managers orders at the rate that i give them...) I think you can just sit back and enjoy my commands rattle through LOL although you may have to get someone to mine more ores....

Well my intended training force rework obviously will be unneeded (Desperate times and all, hence danger rooms. Ordinarily I'd be against them, but given our.... Circumstances I'll allow it.) BUt I'll take care of reequipping and reorganizing everything I must.

I take solace in the probability that your i7 isn't a Sandy Bridge architecture :P Also, why are you running an ATI card while playing dwarf fortress? NVIDIA cards historically have had better OpenGL support.

You have 450 pieces if armor made? Jeez you work fast...

What are story notes?

Remember back in English Comp when you had to make outlines? Kinda like that.

You see, here's how I think this works:
Overseer: Welcome to the military! You need to wear socks! Dorf: Oh, I should get military socks. My socks are civilian socks. Dorf discards socks Dorf: You know, I need a whole lot of gear now. I should get socks... last. Oh, but these steel boots with the white goo on them are nice!

To Urist, pretty much the fact that the mugs are approaching critical mass is what's wrong with them.
