Anyone who plays AO will experience this and sometimes worse. Even
so, the game is usually fun and playable (when I played AO, I saw
some kinds of lag as an opportunity to go AFK). As a player, EQ2's
framerate and WoW's queue annoy me just as much.

I assume it is a priority for the developers, but they cannot fix it
(either they lack the talent/personnel or it is a low-level problem
which would amount to a complete re-write of the client).
