Credit for this tip goes to Poppe X, a regular poster on the HLF. I found this tip and it worked for me, figured I'd share it with the rest of the RSC.

**New** After reading through the comments and finally finding a solution for the Mac users out there, I have added a section for a Mac fix. Credit goes to Vicarious

For PC Users:

After the bot nuke update Dungeoneering door lag has been incredibly bad for me, so much so that four doors opened at once actually caused the client to freeze and crash for me in one dungeon. After a few days of it and ranting to friends, a friend that is an avid castle wars player told me of a way to increase the RAM allocated to the client and is one technique that the CWC (Castle Wars community) uses.

The default allocation to the client is 128MB, but its possible to easily increase that:

- For W7 and Vista users its simple to search for "prm" on the Start Menu. You are looking for the "Runescape.prm" file.

- Right click on it and open its file location. This will just bring up the file where the client is saved. Right click on the file again and open it in notepad.

- The third line is what you are looking for. It should say "Xmx128m." This is the RAM allocated to the client. Replace the 128 with 512 and save it. You'll have to close the client to save it.

To confirm it did anything, before you do this open the developers console and type "heap" it will show the RAM allocated to the client and do it after. Mine personally went from 128mb to 495mb now.

This fixed every bit of door lag for me. I have a small loading screen when I open the door and nearly no delay when I don't open the door. This also makes loading screens around Runescape almost completely gone even in high detail.

Here is a youtube video on how to do it:

FOR MAC USERS

Credit for this goes to Vicarious
Doorlag fix for OSx (Game Client ONLY), only tested in 10.5.8:

1) Search for "RuneScape" in your applications folder.

2) Right click on the application and select "Open Package Contents"

3) This should open the folder contained within the application. Inside the Contents folder, there should be a file called Info.plist. Right click and open this file with Property List Editor.

4) This should open up something that looks like this image:

5) Where you see VMOptions, change all 3 of those values to "-Xmx512m".

6) Save the changes, load up the game client.

7) In the lobby or ingame, open up the game console (usually the ` key) and type heap. This should display 508mb. If it doesn't, replay these steps.

**** IMPORTANT NOTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS ****- This only applies to the downloadable client. I believe it is possible to simply allocate more RAM through Java, but I'm not sure how myself and from what I've heard its not as simple.

- ***I wouldn't suggest this if you have 1g of RAM or less*** One thing to keep in mind that you are simply shifting more total RAM of your computer to the client so if you multitask and don't have much RAM to begin with this will lag your other programs. I personally have 8gb of RAM and this small change has not caused any lag in my multitasking.

- I would suggest only putting numbers in the space that are base 2 (ie 2*2*2,ect or 2^nth). Simply 512mb was enough to fix all my lag. It is possible to put a higher number in there but if you allocate too much RAM and open up say youtube and itunes on 3gb of RAM, it could cause you computer to crash and could actually cause damage. From the people I've talked to... The number is generally around 1/2 the RAM your computer has, however, I haven't tested this with more than 1024mb allocated. Test at your own risk- This process is perfectly reversable, say your computer only has 2gb of RAM and after doing this the client auto runs in safemode and you don't like it. Just put 128 back in the space and it will be redone.

Again, credit for this tip goes to Poppe X and Vicarious (for Mac section). It helped me immensely and has helped several members on my friends list with door lag. Let me know if you have any questions, I'd love to help!
