Blizz's restriction to limit OnUpdate overhead. Too much going on = too much processing, both on the user end and on the servers. You have to take into account that although a user may not mind a bit of lag here and there during data transactions, it does effect gameplay for everyone else as well. About a month ago people ran into this issue where half the players running around where "jerking" or "teleporting" due to inproperly throttled performance monitor mods (not going to state any specfic ones).

As a rogue, I know this irritated the hell outta me when I would try to sneak on someone to find that they were actually 200 yrds in the opposite direction because a mod they had was trying to do too much too quickly.

But that's it for me tonight. I'm well past my bedtime and have to work in the morn. GL with your project.
