So far with my young league, I've been very happy with the speed.

See, this is often the kind of explanation behind these observances. That said, I am done here because I really don't want to make it seem like I am dismissing such complaints without care.

I went ahead and disabled AI roster moves like you suggested, and everything as back to normal, and the third amateur draft ran in less than a minute. This was the only league I was experiencing this in, so thanks for the tip!

I re-enabled AI roster moves (don't think we really want that to stay off) and initially things ran quick but since has slowed to 20-30 seconds per day during the Feeder League season. Still a lot better than 4:30 but still slowing and I suspect it will continue to get slower.

At least we seem to be narrowing down where the issue is. I have a ticket open and loaded my league file and OOTPD has looked at it and seen the lagging.

Inter-league movement, free agency, salaries?

I wish I could say the same thing. Maybe its exclusive to Mac but my sim speed is painfully slow and I think its mostly because the game get stuck on dates. I have to continually restart the game because of it which doesn't even help because it will then get stuck/or take as long as an hours to advance on to another date. I don't want to say it but the game is becoming unplayable for me. I hope something is done soon.

I'd be willing to bet that OOTP has the ability to use far more processor power but don't want to isolate people...too bad. Would love to one day have modern day league run as quick as my small 8 team world.

I've been told that Markus found/fixed the lag problem I was seeing with the End-of-Day processing. They tested the fix with the files I sent them. The fix will be in the next patch.

I sure hope so. The problem has been pretty inconsistent for me. I can run the 2014 majors quickstart with every international league enabled and a complete feeder system with no problem, but the FBL quickstart with only 24 teams/5 minor levels/3 feeder leagues lags like crazy.
