I am thrilled that it kills the random clickers - I don't like random clickers, I ignore them! I like more methodical clickers so I can plant right behind their plowing...

As far as speed, it is not that much slower for me... I still clear 2-3 squares per second when plowing or harvesting for someone - unless there are lots of people or animals present. Even the old way slowed down in those cases.

There's something that could improve performance - something to turn off animals. You can freeze them now, but something about a bunch of animals still takes up a lot of processing time when you try to harvest or plow near them (while they are on your screen). I think code still runs to attempt to move the animal every second (or whatever) and if freeze is on, it just doesn't update the animal's position. But it still does something to take up processing... If we could prevent them from showing up that would be great!
