Performance slowdown

After about 5-10 minutes the game starts to slow down . Fixed by /reload.

It only happens when any add-on is loaded. Tested with even just one addon and it happens.

Add-ons fully updated.

Is anyone else having issues?

its called memory leak lil bro that’s just modern gaming

yeah i get random major fps drops and have had crazy lag spikes in bgs which is frusterating these west coast servers aint it

No issues with Era client. Same add-ons . Clearly an issue with the new client.

yep modern gaming client memory leak plagues games from the last 8 years gg

Disable Bugsack and Buggrabber and you will see the memory leaks.

Also, you cannot use your addons from Era to TBC.

You need to delete saved variables folder and install all new addons.

Any addon?

It’s likely that one or more addons are generating a lot of errors if the API changes have changed in a way that causes a critical failure. (And those errors could lead to high CPU usage and/or memory leaks.)
But I’d be surprised if all your addons have broken like that.

I haven’t observed any issues with the addons I used.
But I use an error handler to identify addon errors; and I’ve updated or disabled any problematic addons.

These are fully updated add-ons, the devs of these say they work in TBC.

I’m using bartender4 and bagnon.

That’s all.

Bartender is a known addon that has had lag issues since TBC launch.

In which case, if those are the only 2 addons you’ve tried, saying “any addon” is a misleading extrapolation.

I don’t use Bartender.

I do use Bagnon, which has always been slightly sluggish as I move items.
But it’s no worse since pre-patch.

seems to be hunter related

Yes. It’s related to the pet bar and Warlocks have it also.

Toggle them off fixes it

I hope this is addressed. i have to reload pretty frequently.

i can confirm it is the pet bar. just played without one for half an hour without a single slowdown issue.

This is still an issue, and there has been no acknowledgment by blizzard to my understanding

I haven’t noticed this on lock, have you tried it with 0 addons enabled?
