Re: Is all the lag/server lag stuff because of changes to render distance?

Nope - we found a big cause of it after this weekend. We were saving characters with each cert point earned - a remnant of earlier days when a cert point took a long time to earn so we wanted to be sure to force a save then instead of during normal periodic save process. During double XP that was happening a lot and making the problem even worse, on average with every kill earned we were saving. Caused a lot of server lag - things will run much better now.
