Encounter Log Freezes my PC

50% of the times when I am running the encounter log in a trial, it will cause my game to freeze for 10–20 seconds. When it eventually resumes, it shows my ping as 999+ for a few seconds before it returns to a normal value. This rarely ever happens when I am not logging. I am not doing a live log so I know it isn't at the fault of the log uploader. Any suggestions on where to look to fix this?

    I am having the same issue.

    Generally when I am playing and doing trials, I do not experience any lag at all.

    (Well, except the general lag with input delay as we all experience since Markarth.. LA, blocking etc that only go through if you press long enough, as if only then will the server have enough time to read them.)

    However, when I started /encounterlog I started having short time freezes during battles. I was in vSS when this happened and as soon as the first pull started, I was in a freeze that lasted the whole battle. The rest of my group finished that part of the trial and even cleared the next group of trashmobs, before I was out of my freeze. While out of battle everything ran smoothly, but when battle started again at Ice Boss, so did my freezes.

    It was not until I disabled /encounterlog that everything went back to normal.

    Is there anything I can tweak to be able to have /encounterlog enabled without freezes?

    It seems to only happen when there are lots of effects going on around me.
