Not exactly, I probably should have chosen my words more carefully. Suffice it to say that any skills that require doing something with moving players around (especially multiple players (especially across several rooms (especia…

This is fairly recent, primarily so the newbie command suggestions can offer the base skill verbs (abjure, cast, etc.) as suggestions; previously they'd have just given an invalid command error without a valid supplied spell, wh…
Since I received the question from multiple sources, and I'd rather answer only once: Unless you are doing it approximately once every .000000000000000001 seconds, using GMCP to ping the server is completely negligible in terms of processing time. F…

I couldn't tell you for certain, since I've not been around since last year's ascension. Unless profiling is being run during Ascension, though, it's difficult for us to see where the bottlenecks are. The problem with running pr…
Not particularly. Information from you guys that would help in pinpointing the problems would include, say, a particular command you've found that consistently causes a notable lag. Based on the profiling results I've got, though, I don't think that…

That was fixed ages ago, and isn't an issue at this point.
I'm going to try lowering the tick we're using to detect lag, and see if anything comes up. As of right now, for the fifteenth, there were two processor-bound…

I've checked our logs for lag spikes, haven't seen anything out of the ordinary for today. Judging by some of the comments earlier in the thread, it seems as though the issue was network lag, rather than a problem with Lusternia (since mobs were app…
