Tinker Thinker:
So, my latest embark has me in a sandy swamp (who knew?).

Normally, this isn't an issue, but that it is in that one temperature zone where water evaporates, but can also freeze over, and there's a nice long river. . .

Therefore, there's a lot of water flow stuff eating at my framerate, to the point that even a meager seventeen dwarves is seeing some nasty lag.

So I ask you: How do I clean out this excess water in an efficient manner?

Max White:
Magma applied to the 17 dwarfs.

Absentia:
Disabling temperature in the init should take care of it. Alternatively, you might be able to plug up the river with magma, although that would make your framerate a lot worse before it got better.

tastypaste:
If you do disable temp, make sure to do it while the water is thawed. iirc disabling temp when it's frozen leaves it permanently frozen.

The Okavango Delta is a swamp in the sandy Kalahari Desert.
