how many location leaks it takes for computer to lag? (approximately of course). I am asking that because all of my maps that use periodic events (0.01) + polar offset don't lag at all, so I wuz wondering how many locations it has to create for noticeable effect

After a minute of a .01 second trigger leaking about... 23x (no, that number wasn't random. That's how many leaks the average 11-player 'sliding' trigger for a maze leaks), you'll start to get insane delay and such. Delay more that lag, however. Also, it will cause insane problems with TriggerSleepAction()

However, you shouldn't be using Locations in JASS except for Z heights, and a few other very specific things

check the attached map

i didn't notice ANY slowdown (measured by /fps command) even after creating 30k locations and my comp is seven years old junk

I tested this too but with 5 units moving ( to make it faster )

< 25000 ther was nothing really recognizeable
from 25000 to 40000 a little delay was noticeable
from 40000 to 45000 it got instantly laggy
over 45000 it was unplayable with less than 1 frame per second

anyway ... LEAKS ARE EVIL!!

Depends on RAM usage. If you have ample ram, it doesn't make much different.

I have seen WC3 maps go upwards of 300 MB of RAM usage due to leaks. That's enough to go over 512 MB of RAM for a system, and will cause major slow downs.
