Ever since the recent rework, I have been experiencing lag and lag spikes on both osu and osu lazer. Pre-rework, I never experienced lag (everything was as smooth as butter).

Does anyone know why this is the case and how I could fix things? Thank you. o7

You might be experiencing some lag because of difficulty calculation(s) might be running whilst you are either playing the game or just using the client.

Up in the top right corner of the song select screen, do you see that there are maps that are still be recalculated?

Also, from outside difficulty calculation if you still encounter lag spikes you can check there: wiki/en/Performance_troubleshooting

All my maps were already calculated so that does not seem to be the problem. It's really weird because I've never had lag issues on my laptop before. I'll check the link out though, thank you.

On the stable version, I also encounter a lot of lag since the last update (the fruit stops or slows down and the sound shifts), all my music is calculated and the frame times graph does not show anything abnormal. I never had this problem before.

My friend told me he's having the same lag issues as me on stable as well - perhaps it is to do with the rework.

The lag spikes may be because of difficulty calculation in progress

i also have this problem right now. so far i figured out that it doesnt happen if i turn on compatability mode but then my OTD stops working and tabbing in and out is glitched. i also updated all my drivers and played with the settings a bit. so far i didnt figure anything out but everything was fine before the rework/update came out.

EDITS:
-Tabbing out seems to remove the lags but as soon as i tab back in it comes back.

Have you checked the performance troubleshooting wiki to see if it helps at all?

Make sure that you have nothing but osu! open and running.

All my maps have been recalculated and I believe his are too.

I find it extremely difficult to believe there should be any performance issues "caused by the rework" after difficulty recalculation has concluded, and I find it unlikely that all of the people here are really experiencing "the same issue". This needs isolating, because for all I know $GPU_MANUFACTURER might have pushed a driver update that is causing this in the mean time.

When it comes to lazer I'd ask for a video showing this with frame graph showing (ctrl-f11 twice) and possibly performance overlay too (ctrl-f2, then scroll to very end).

However, this problem has existed since the redesign, after having tried the "compatible mode" repaired osu and even reinstalling it and trying all the options offered by osu the problem still appears. It's the same problem as this person but personally I'm on "optimal" https://imgur.com/a/cqfN0tn For osu!catch mode, the notes suffer a big slowdown (especially after a retry)

As you say, the problem may be "isolated" but for me the problem is very real, I don't have a powerful PC but it's enough to play (For this reason I cannot use a video recording) and I've never had a lag problem before this. Currently, the frame graph does not show anything abnormal, like my task manager or it is not important enough to inflict as much lag

You're misunderstanding here. By "isolated" I meant "this could be fifty different things and people who are affected by this should try different stuff on their own to maybe find out whether something else changed on their systems to cause this".

Oh sorry ! Anyway, I tried everything without success, I just noticed when during the replays there were no problems. I hope one day you find out why the latest update is causing some problems ^^

And I apologize once again for not being able to help you more !

In the end I noticed that the "draw" line is quite high when I have lag problems and slowdowns https://imgur.com/a/ED7fMOv
