The idle hearthling has not been fixed yet, it’s in progress. I think Tony mentioned that for some people it might appear before and for some people later.

So it might be partially related to hardware, but the main problem is in the game, that’s why they are optimizing it.

You can try running the unstable branch but yeah even with the new fixes I’m still topping out around 13 hearthlings with an i5. The idle hearthling bug is something they’re gonna be working on for a while. Maybe by the time the game gets out of Alpha, I’ll be ready to upgrade 😛
