Surface has been atrociously laggy for months, sometimes being nigh unplayable even when the server was mostly empty.

Now, I find Surface nearly lag free.

This makes playing on the surface so much more fun, even when you're not fighting things. It's nice to be able to move without clipping back and forth half the time!

Thank you devs (mostly or entirely Liareth and Hoodoo?) for all your hard work on this, it is appreciated.

Honestly things have felt so smooth since the reduction, there have been a few small bumps here and there but It's been such a significant boost to the servers health. Thanks a lot!

I am in complete agreement with this! I do not know what voodoo you guys/gals do, but it has been outstanding.

Thank you!

I echo this sentiment, stealing and claiming every word from the above quote shamelessly

Thanks for the kind words everyone, it makes it all worth it!

I wrote all the code. Hoodoo put in just as much work, or probably more, deploying and testing and gathering data so we knew what to optimize. Silvard was really helpful with offering input and advice for one specific optimization which helped to reduce lag spikes a lot!

Then thank you Hoodo, Liareth and Silvard for being awesome and making it fun to be on surface again

The changes have been extremely positive. Thank you for making the game so much more playable.
