* Drastic Lag Mitigation Subsystem: SSlag_switch (#59717)
Requested by oranges and inspired by the upcoming event. A new subsyetem, non-processing (for now), aimed at providing some toggle switches that can be flipped as a last ditch effort to save some CPU cycles by sacrificing some non-critical mechanics. Below you can see each individual toggle.

Why It's Good For The Game
Better performance during extreme pop, I hope.
