It could be a coincidence, but I thought that today was curiously less laggy than usual. Not entirely lag-free, though nearly. It had a very significant impact on playability and fun. If this is the result of some underlying change quietly introduced with this update, I applaud.

I would like the option, in Settings, to not render the animation of animated paints. Ideally, this would also cause the client to only download a lower-memory static version of animated paints, saving not only on eyestrain and CPU cycles but also on memory.

I appreciate (and agree with) this comment so much, I couldn't help reposting (by quoting) it! Great job, vinculum4!

From the patch update notes: That is an excellent improvement. Thank you!
