AFOW and full light mode lagging

so i have turned off AFOW and Global illumination and also turned off DL nand the game is still super slow. This has been going on for quite a while. Im starting to get upset and thinking about playing on another platform. I pay real money to use these features and it slows down so bad it take 5 - 10 seconds for anything to happen wheter it opening up a character sheet or moving the map.  Why is this not being fixed??  its been going on for well over 6 months.  whats up developers. stop coming out with new content and fix the broken stuff first.

With Dynamic Lighting and AFoW turned off, you should not be experiencing noticeable lag. There are many reports of AFoW+Global Illumination lag, but I've seen nothing recently for general lag. I'm not getting it, and I have a fairly old, mid-range computer that I frequently use DL on. Assuming you have gone through the steps above, there are other sources for lag you can look for: A large number of Character Sheets. Like over 200. Even if you have a lot fewer, lag can be caused if a number of those have a huge number of spells on them (Assuming you are using a system that has spells). Extremely large maps or many map pages. (performance can vary widely on these, depending on the file size of the map image or number of images on a page). If you are noticing lag on character sheets and are using Firefox, there is a known issue that can be resolved by turning off Autofill and Autocomplete. What system and sheet are you using?
i use either firefox or chrome  i get lag on both dont have more than 20 - 30 charactes but that is for all games
i play 5e d&d
