I've been noticing over the past few days a certain sluggish experience in regards to being in-world. I never had this experience before, I don't think its my system slowin down, I've checked all references.

Does Physics FPS have anything to do with this sytem wide slowdown?
Physics FPS: 44.0

Now I'm not sure if that's a normal as I've been trying to find the source of this problem.

Physics over 30fps is generally fine; max is 45.

Can you describe the problem in more detail? A few examples and troubleshooting tips here:

There's a general trend choppiness assocaited with an FPS drop. Its difficult to say whether or not its a client or server side issue. I hadn't experienced something like this before. Generally I can tell if its lag in general or not but this I can't tell.

I noticed that it was apparent in more crowded areas (which leads to lag of course) but there was a sharp FPS drop along with it being choppy and sluggish for a few moments.

It can't really be described better than that, just can't tell if its my side or server side.
