Noticing a freeze every 5 seconds on the main thread. The whole map/robots etc all freeze, controls become unresponsive, map view becomes stuck etc. When I turn off razi-protocol the jitter/freeze stops.

Background
I had to disable razi protocol1.6.8 due to it blocking installs of new mods. But with it re-enabled on this playthrough the game is very laggy every 5-10 seconds it just full freezes.

Troubleshooting:

I'm not seeing the issue on a new game. But it might become an issue when I get later into the new game.

Question
1. Is there a way to test this by recreating a previous game with all assets as if they existed right after the game started?
2. Can I safely disable razi protocol in my current save? I did that and noticed the lag/jitter went away.
