Hi,
I am a newbie - I have been teaching myself Python 3 since a few
months ago. My “self assignments” include some purely for fun. Among
them was using the turtle module to have multiple turtles running
around on the screen.
Recently one such fun turtle “project” showed strange behavior that I
cannot understand – while I achieved my goals (multiple turtles
oscillate along random straight lines while changing colors), there
was a steady slowing down of turtles as time goes. Actually they
became so slow it is not even fun to look at.
There is a bug issue on the tracker that may be related to this.
Unfortunately, the reviser of the turtle module is not actively
maintaining it any more, though this might be an underlying tkinter or
tk issue. Probably something is not being deleted that should be, or you
are simply overloading the canvas memory and re-compute loop.
I have not specifically looked at your code.
