I think right now you can reduce the detail of everything but the players, which is why you can't really get around lag in places like rotk (or raids).

There seems to be also some lag related issues with the UI, depending on what custom mod you run you can experience alot more lag.

Which is why you could not solve the lag issues on raids with instances as your own raid causes it and your own ui.



I don't have all the details, but the last time I talked to a coder on the subject of framerate and large numbers of players the level of "detail" on the players was very minimal in affecting the framerate - it has to do with something other than just pushing polys.

The last time my guild went to an area with 18+ people hitting a mob, I was receiving the same framerate on the highest settings as I was on the lowest settings.

I generally run the game on the highest settings possible, or on balanced, with the texture detail cranked to maximum and the clip plane maxed.
