Yes this is an even bigger difference for Paradox games even since they don't just have a dozen or so players(AI NAtions) but many more.

Hoi 2 has a vastly improved AI when compared to hoi 1. Unfortunately, improvements in AI invariably come at the expense of CPU cycles, which means it takes more CPU time to come to a decision. This in turn will slow down the game's pace if you take out the artificially inserted turn-to-turn wait time (which you do if you let it run at the fastest speed setting).

If you run it at normal speed (it's called normal for a reason ;)) then you will notice hardly any speed difference between hoi 1 and hoi 2.

Jan Peter, are you saying a game played at normal speed is nearly as fast as one played at extremely fast? Or is it 'more accurate' regarding AI decisions/calculations?
 
He is saying normal speed HOI1 equal normal speed HOI2.
It is only on the faster speeds that HOI2 is slower than HOI1

Is that an incomplete thought? Do you mean the faster speeds of HoI2 are slower than the faster speeds of HoI1?
 
Seams complete to me.
I also think the second line clearly already answered your question.

My CPU is a laptop if that can explain the reason why of the heating

I also play this on my wife's laptop and my desktop. For the laptop I invested in a cooling pad, which helps the laptop stay cooler, though it still gets hot even with this, I do see that it helps in keeping it cooler.
 
Interesting tip.
