The lag is intense

[Lovelywishes]

Ever since the Minecraft update 1.6.1 everything in the servers has been laggy.
In the MCSG lobby I can barely walk 2 feet without getting major lag. It's not my computer either. And in arenas like Survival Games 2 or Teweran 2 since those maps have lag already it's incredible how much lag I get there now. I can't play MCSG properly anymore ):
I wonder if anyone is having serious lag with the new "Horse Update"

We know Minecraft 1.6 has been a bumpy road thus far for just about everyone involved, but luckily it seems like things are getting better! We've pushed some updates to our software tonight that should make things a bit more stable, thanks to the CraftBukkit 1.6 update.

FPS Lag? Click here and follow this tutorial, it may help some!

Here's a few things we've discovered over the past day or two:

• The sprint delay is in fact a bug in Minecraft 1.6.1 and will be fixed when 1.6.2 is released.
• The half heart issue should now be resolved.
• The communication error issue should now be resolved.
• Having FPS lag? Have a laptop with two graphics cards? Your integrated card may be taking over - try looking for a setting to force usage of your dedicated graphics card.

This has been all everyone's been saying for the past 3 days. Don't worry, you're not the only one. Mojang will fix it, and Optifine is 40% done, so just give it a few more days.
