Purely technical question about lag.

Plus, I do have various (not tons, but a fair amount, hair, furniture, clothing and LOTS of patterns and pictures, and are a mix of .packages and Sims3packs.)
Come to think of it, this sounds like package file lag, do you have over 100 or more package files in your mod folder?

Concur. I have a Core 2 Duo and only 4 GB of RAM, and a fair amount of CC, but killing the problem files tagged in Process Monitor made a HUGE difference in my game's performance.

I have a quad core with 3 RAMZ. It was very laggy, choppy, and horrible to try and play, but the Dashboard Tool cleaned it all up. I didn't have to use the process monitor. It runs very smoothly now. *Keeps fingers crossed*

The Dashboard is very helpful, and certainly worth trying first (it's useful for just keeping track of everything and identifying some other issues as well.) But it missed quite a few files that were slowing my game to a crawl. So if the Dashboard doesn't fix everything on the first try, keep trying other options!

Yes, my game issues were minor and I got lucky with the Dashboard. I don't have huge amounts of CC.
