Exceptional spike in lag.

Since traveling characters were introduced, I have experienced a dramatic increase in lag. After performing an action I will wait upwards of 10 seconds before the game responds to that click. At times I will have to do this multiple times before anything actually happens. While the game is playable, it has become very frustrating at times to perform even the most basic tasks. I avoid going into my dwelling as much as possible as the animation from all the workers is a major pain. They freeze, the game tries to catch up resulting in the workers suddenly moving around at hyper speed only to freeze up again. Add the snow animation to this and the problem is multiplied.

I am connected on a 50MB cable line, this is not an issue on my end/ISP.

I would love an option to disable all worker animation, or at least weather animation, as these seem to be the largest source of my problem.

This might also be a factor in the mis-clicks in the flower puzzle.  I'm very careful where I place my cursor before I click on a square, yet sometimes the wrong square uncovers.  I sometimes notice that the screen jumps just a tiny bit when I'm weeding, and if this jump happens just as I click, it could easily move the screen just enough for me to click the wrong square.  I have turned off the custom cursor so that I have the smaller regular cursor, but still have mis-clicks, even when I know the square I clicked on is not the square that was weeded.  Very frustrating!
