i disabled wsct some time ago (turn game unplayable in big fights) and dont use mgr....also disabled some of the buffhead options the game runs better (still big lag spikes in fort pushes).

Regarding enemy...didnt know that make so big lag issues => i really only use enemy to wb/grp frames, to track some debuffs/buffs/hots (disabled dps/hps meters and other utilities)...maybe will run better if try another addont for this purpose?? maybe squared?

If it does then I haven't seen it. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction if they do exist. Thanks for the response, it's at least a step in the right direction.

Found it. It's a warboard module called Warboard_LuaMemory that is part of VinyUI. It was added in VinyUI 5.1 and I believe it was written by the creator of VinyUI. Here is what it looks like:

Does the garbage collector increase ui performance?

I only used it briefly so can't say for sure. It probably helped, but I still had to use /reload pretty often to get over some issues.

I think some performance issues have more to do with bad event handlers since there's that thread were the guy disabled a bunch of event handlers in some core modules and saw performance improve a lot.

Hey thanks! I was able to grab it and I'm testing it out now.

Disabling core modules or modifying default/EA UI elements may impact your ability to play the game if we end up implementing those core modules in the future. Something to keep in mind. It would probably be patched over anyway.

Yes, I've heard those changes break a lot of group stuff which I why I haven't used it. I was hoping that the dev team is looking into those modules because there is probably some truth that there are performance issues there and I was hopping it get "officially" fixed at the game level similar to how you guys have done in the past. Do you know if you guys are looking into those? I know I suffer from the large lag spikes every 3 seconds after a few large fights.
