Perhaps with the lag problems it would be best to have two servers now. I managed to play about 4 hours today lag free with a stable ping, but about an hour ago it all went pear shaped and huge lag started. Ping would jumped up and down, but never stabilise. Server can't handle everyone crafting baskets at the same time i guess. Maybe if there were other things to do besides crafting there would be less traffic, i mean, server has surely got to take strain from 1000's ? of people grinding crafting items. Most mmo's people are just questing and killing npcs, Xsyon everyone is crafting and creating new items on the database. Maybe the size of the world is too ambitious too. Or is the lag from people macroing. Hmm, would having two servers help?
