    1. Open powder.exe
    2. CPU usage ~ 40%
    3. Check Newtonian Gravity option
    4. CPU usage ~ 100%

    It uses only ~ 60% in 57.5

    You're so right! I can even turn on newt grav on a save with no WHOL, no BHOL, no anything, and it still lags me like if time was freezing!

    Why the hell am I sounding like the Doctor? Maybe I want to o.O

    Yeah, it was not like this before, at least in 57.5
    I thought there might be something wrong

    I turned on Newt. Gravity and CPU usage rose up to 35%.
    I have the following computer specs.

    Dell XPS 600, 3.9GHz Duel Core, 4GB 967 RAM, EVGA GTS 250, Track IR Ultra, Logitech Xtreme 3D Pro., Logitech G25
    on Windows XP

    Maybe you just need a faster computer :/
