Does this, in any way, slow down Osu! at all? Because my computer really isn't all that great. It lags every time a long slider appears and the occasional spinner.
Sounds that we playing under similar conditions (my computer doesn't handle heavy storyboarding well, too much on the screen at once and sliders sometimes cause lag). I myself have MSN integration going, and haven't noticed any slowdowns due to it at all. =3
