Lag when placing mex

[sillynanny]

Anyone knows why the new version of BA would become really slow when placing mexes? When the dark and green view of metal spots is activated, my FPS goes from 150 to less than 1. This is on Ubuntu Maverick 64bits.

Is it slow if you just active metal map view with F4, without having anything selected?

Is it still slow if you disable luaui first (by typing '/luaui disable')?

It is not what it seemed. Turns out it also happens on old versions of BA, but it started happening exactly on my first game of the latest version.

It still happens with luaui disable. Using the ALT-B key to see the performance values, it shows CPU LOAD going to 100% when entering the mex area view.

I'll look into it but it has nothing to do with the latest BA upgrade.
