Largest/Longest world gen in 44.x?
Lord Snow:
After downloading the latest versions i have noticed i am now unable to generate medium regions, and even islands, with 300 years of history.
The world generation becomes unresponsive and windows automatically throws the popup to shoot it down.
This is a pretty sad state of affairs, considering that procedural generation of not just worlds but of beings, sites, civs, beasts and wars is the strong suit of dwarf fortress i always found most interesting.
So... what do i need to actually generate a proper 1k+ year large world in this latest version?
Is it even possible?
I've tracked the process, and it never used more than 1 core, which means there is very little room for improvement from my old 3570k running at 4.4Ghz.

You sure it's not just your PC? I've never had this problem with any 44. release.
Shonai_Dweller:
I generate medium regions of 450 years, with massively increased hist-figs for extra slow generation goodness. No problems at all. A 1000 year old world might see me leave my PC overnight (and there's a crash that might happen, fixed in next release apparently so I don't bother with that right now). But yeah, 450 no issues. Half an hour or so? Maybe less.
