I play on a bukkit server which is waiting for a stable bukkit build to update to 1.6.2.
I've been going onto the server (which is still running 1.5.2) using the old launcher. I don't have a particularly powerful laptop, and use OptiFine to get Minecraft to run a bit better - I'll usually get something in the range of 15-25 fps, which isn't wonderful, but is playable enough for me.
I'd been playing 1.6.2 single-player a bit while I waited for the server to update, and of course, have had some serious trouble with lag. Managed to figure out how to get OptiFine onto it, but though that helped a little, it's was regularly dipping into single figures.
So I went back to the server out of irritation, and for some reason, I'm now getting <10 fps on the server too...in the 4-6 range, which is seriously unplayable.
I tried going in via the new launcher, but I don't have/know how to install 1.5.2 OptiFine to the new launcher, so it was giving me similar numbers.
Does anyone know what might be causing this? I've been playing the game for over two years now, and I'm slightly freaking out that it's just breaking and I don't know how to fix it. Is it likely to be something wrong with the game, the server, or my laptop?
Any help would be welcome.
