Crafting add-ons slow down performance?

Decided to give crafting add-ons (CraftStore and Lazy Writ Crafter) a go this week, only for them to make my game unplayable. Nothing loaded, couldn't do any group content (couldn't see bosses, team members, even my own attacks). I reduced the quality of graphics but still had similar performance issues. Disabled these add-ons and performance immediately came back. Has anyone else had these issues with those add-ons? Or identified which one is causing the lag? It's a shame, because they were *super* helpful and want to use them but I can't!

    Use addon selector and create various addon profiles / loadouts - e.g. one for group content (notifiers, hodor etc), exploration (minimap etc), crafting (lazywrit, writworthy etc), trading (MM etc). Then, when you're done with crafting mode, switch to group or exploration mode, reload UI and don't carry around unnecessary addon load.

    Never tried Craft Store but had no issues with Lazy Writ Crafter.

    I have been running LWC and CS for years. No performance issues.

    These addons are only active when you open them or activate a Crafting Station or Writ Board.

    I would suspect Master Merchant.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
