I run with all the leagues as enhanced, I'm not sure how much it is but I know it's a lot less than one league on FM!

I run everything enhanced also, maximum database and 5000 games stored. The savegame size for that is about 220-230MB at the year 2010 and it's not really changing from that.

I think saved games will reach a peak size after so many seasons due to the limit on the number of games stored.

Thats pretty good. I was worried about processing speed after the first season-on FM it gets a lot slower, and given the amount of NHL games a season compared to an average club side I thought it might be horrendous. Hence i only picked the NHL, AHL, ECHL and the Canadian league, with only the NHL enhanced. I suppose the amount of graphics loaded into the game also effects game size?

The added graphics don't do anything for the savegame, those are only loaded to the screen if they exist.

I always set it up to run all leagues on advanced. I'm not worried about the size of the save file and it gives me a chance to make a cup of coffee while the game sets everything up initially. 8-)

I'm playing with all the leagues on "enhanced", most because I want to get a new job in any other league when I got a higher reputation.

But sometimes I got the board very angry. :dunno:
