In one word - slooooooowdoooooooooown,
There's just too much detail on an open area map. Plus all that silly lava. I have a fast P3 with a 32MB graphics card and usually run all levels at max detail with a fast frame rate (not tried ctf space though). Yes I could turn the detail down but why should I when it's fine for the other maps. The other large open CTF maps wisely have plain walls in the open areas which lets them run fine unlike canyons texture fest.
So for now I shall always switch server when canyon comes up. Hopefully someone wise will remove it from the servers. I know all new maps are worth a try but come on, this one is a failure.
