Problem with Starfinder Modules causing Lag for players?
We aren't 100% sure it is the modules causing extreme lag and player disconnects from the server but unloading the Pact World for Players and Alien Archive has been the only thing that seems to help. We have tried playing on live & test with the same results. If the modules are allowed to be loaded by the players FG bogs down so much it will even trip the "Not Responding" dialog from windows. Has anyone else had issues similar to this or found any solutions to it?
Thanks!

Does Alien Archive have a Player Module? If not, absolutely under no circumstance should that (or any GM module) be shared with players. FG's sharing mechanism has been known to increase memory consumption on any given component up to 400% for players versus how much memory it uses on the GMs PC. Similarly, if you are sharing too many tokens (pro tip: do not share tokens, just assign tokens yourself) and too many large images. When scenes are completed, unshare images to free the memory.
If the players are only loading player modules, just tell them to only load modules they actually need and/or are actively using, then unload them.
