Whats wrong with W.E. unit data?

[Bond009]

Why is it that everytime i do one of these things it lags the shit outa the computer and takes about 20-25 secs for it to happen?
any of these things:
-------------------
make a new custom unit
rename a unit
change name - editor suffix
change tooltip extended
change the race
change the level of the unit

there might even be some things im missing also.

Fact is it wasnt this way a really long time ago.. because i remember way back then. So why is it like this now?
I just started doing stuff that requires me to make a lot of new units and its driving me nuts in wait time.

Keep in mind my comp specs are:
quad core overclocked 3.27 GHz
8 GB of overclocked ddr2 ram
2 raided 0 raptor hard drives (crazy fast)
9800 GTX vid card

my computer is not lacking.

does JNGP have this same issue? because if not link me i'll get it now ffs..

These things have to be updated in the palettes. The brush list is especially slow, turn it off under >>>Window [ ] Brush list.

It also takes longer the more objects you already have.

Whats the brush list affect? why do i even need it on to begin with?
What does it affect if i turn it off aside from that little window in the bottom left with the unit trees going away?

Edit:
wow though, thanks a lot for that.. did not know thats what was affecting it all this time..lol that'll save me alot of time.

Yes, it's only the tree. I do not use it really, either. Might be fast to switch through and neat, tough, but on the other hand again does not show everything.
