    Civ 4 Runs Slow and Choppy

    I had the same problem than you. On a huge map, I had to wait sometimes nearly 10 minutes between each turn, while my harddrive was working. I greatly reduced this delay by : -Setting swap file size to 1500/1500 (as you already did) -Installing a small application to defragment my RAM ...
