feedback for GE 4b1/2
after running the application for a few minutes with intensive zooms and flythroughs, the performance decreases dramatically and renders the app useless.
There seems to be a connection with the mem-cache:

1) Increasing the mem-cache to (on my machine) to 600MB delays the appearance of the performance-decrease.

2) Clearing the mem-cache through the options-menu resolves the performance-issue for the moment - after a while the problem re-appears as described above.

The problem exists in both beta builds released so far.
DirectX and OpenGL show similar behaviour.
GE 3 is not concerned.
