Thanks for bringing this up. I recently had to change my desktop (Ikr who has a desktop these days?:P) monitor and after the switch to a widescreen I get the same "pause" after casting to spell that you're talking about. It constantly looks like I'm about to be d/c booted.

Love to hear what the issue is here...

Do you also have a widescreen monitor?

I too have noticed this pause lately. For me, there have been no changes to my computer or internet connection. Its so brief, but enough for me to notice. Glad to know I'm not the only one.

Same things has been happening to my Storm wiz lately- every time she fizzles, there's a 5-10 second lag between the cast and the text/anim.

I'm on a laptop, but it's brand-new and I've never changed the settings; nothing is wrong with my interwebz, either~ hopefully, KI will fix it soon. :)
