Users report that Kingspray experiences performance issues after prolonged use, particularly when working on large files, which can lead to poor tracking and overall frustration. The problem appears to be linked to the size of the data files, which can exceed 100 MB for a single artwork.
“After painting on the same file in Kingspray for some time, the program seems to run into performance issues that mimic poor tracking, possibly related to the dat file which I have seen exceed 100 MB for just one picture. This is a frustrating outcome for an art program.”
“The optimization in this game is severely lacking, leading to frequent lag and stuttering during gameplay.”
“I often experience crashes and slowdowns, which makes it hard to enjoy the game. The optimization needs significant improvement.”
