You also cannot rule out poor script optimisation, with AI mods being highlights of this.

While my processor can certainly handle it, the game engine itself may not. For example, and this certainly may not apply to everyone else, but I still have problems with AI mods, Zeus AI in this case, in that every 5 seconds, my game will freeze for 1 seconds exactly once roughly 6+ AI squads with 10 people in each are on the field. The more AI groups (groups being the key word, not just singular units) on the field at once, the faster and longer the freezes start and last, respectively. Smaller groups (4-5 people) or just singular units do not suffer this problem. Without Zeus AI, the game runs smoothly. Poor scripting can cause, thanks to bohemia's oh-so-well designed engine, total game freezes and lockups. Even crashes, but those are very rare.

Of course, this may not be a problem for everyone, but it is still something to consider if you are having lag problems when you usually do not.
