[QUOTE="heddhunter, post: 109472, member: 1318"] As an iOS developer I can tell you there's probably nothing to be done about it. The iPad 1 has a ridiculously small amount of memory compared to anything else in the iOS lineup. Your best bet is to reboot the iPad before playing TPA just to make sure it has the most RAM free, but even that I fear is not going to be 100% effective. I would buy a new one personally. (I'm gonna be first in line for the iPad Air, that thing looks sick.) Once the new generation comes out you should be able to pick up an iPad 4 used for a good price. I wouldn't get an iPad 3 - that's what I have now and, while it's miles better than the 1, it's still just a little slow and stuttery every once in a while. Might as well make a real upgrade. If you can afford it, the latest iPad Air or iPad Mini (retina) will be great choices, as they have the 64 bit A7 processor, which is a real beast. [/QUOTE]
