Why does opening the market window block the UI for multiple seconds? Any settings I can change to mitigate this? The distant future is feeling an awful lot like 1995. |

Most likely because there's a fair bit of data to be polled from the database. I expect that takes the time where the window is frozen.
It's not like that data can be stored locally, so even if you just open the market and don't look for a specific item, it still goes through the process of building the lists of what is available in the region, even if not pulling the data for the prices and orders initially. |

I don't think he complains about the market window needs some time to pull the data, but that the whole GUI ( other windows - even the game itself ) appears to hang until the market data is leaded.
A while back i dimly remember they optimized the client a bit to use maybe a second thread/core. But am not so sure about that. Isn't that also due the the limitation of stack less python they also use for the client ? |

Mine doesn't. Are you sure there's not a memory/bandwidth or other issue on your PC? |

Im sure its something along the line of "Larger markets can sometimes take longer to load due to the high amount of data." Jita - regional will take longer to fetch than backwater Provi regional market info for example.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I am not sure if it will help, but try to clear your client cache. In the past this helped when too much market data was stored in cache (but we changed the handling of this already, so I am not sure if this is still the case).

Maybe he was trolling,or he suggest that if you turn off sound, that uses "a lot of" CPU resources, you get more CPU cycles on the market. |

I think it is way past time for CCP to offer a client that is optimized for 64bit Operating Systems w/ multiple cores, especially since the recommended system is 4GB or higher.... |

If they did that, it wouldn't make any sense to make it an GÇ£offerGÇ¥, but rather make it a complete, single replacement for the current client, and that won't happen until the install base (and the middleware) is fully ready for that kind of transition.

But it IS stored locally, that's what the cache is for. That's what is scanned to populate EVE-central.
If the UI was multi threaded at all for a slow download-call like this you wouldn't notice.

The game has had this problem since launch, I too get a (small) delay on loading the market. Yes a mutlithreaded UI that was able to handle the market data refresh on a different thread would solve this I would expect unless its a python issue. Either way its annoying :P |
