Hi, I have been playing with the giant earth map on marathon length, and am currently at around turn 450. When creating a city or taking one from another player the game hands for about 5 or 10 minutes before resuming. Is this normal? Does anyone else have the same issue? If so, is there any fix for it? Running 8gb of ram with I7 860 and GTX 580. I have tried running it on dx 9 and lowering all the settings to minimum but it doesn't seem to help.

I just timed the last city I founded, 5m 8secs. This cant be right. I understand that the game sometimes has issues on big maps late game, but this is pretty ridiculous.

Thanks for any advice.

EDIT: Just tried a fresh install, this time on my SSD, but the problem persists. Can anyone help me?
