That is not very helpful unless you describe _what_ is slow. Is it the
end-of-turn, or watching the units move, or what?

You can know if it is the end-of-turn by pressing 'enter' in the server
console - if the server is not responding it is doing end-of-turn, if it
is responding, it has done its stuff and is waiting for your client to
catch up :-)
