Game locks up every time quest objectives update

Hi, long time user and lover of Carbonite but i have been having some issues for the last few builds that i wanted to bring up and see if there is a easy fix that has somehow escaped me, or if it is something that needs to be addressed on the code level.

Everytime that a quest objective updates, such as loot a quest item, kill a mob and so on, my game client completely freezes up for about 1 sec, i have noticed that if i am in a party with my wife who also has carbonite(but not this problem), whenever a quest objective updates for her i also freeze, it makes it practically impossible to run together because i will be constantly freezing as we quest. i am using the latest beta, have disabled all other addons, and have done a complete reinstall/setup and it still happens. i'm not sure if there is a problem in the quest module or if the quest data is being improperly handled somehow. hopefully someone has encountered this before and can help me out
Thanks

So i updated to 5.3.0 Alpha 2 and am still having the same problem, has anybody else experienced this or found a fix for it? Having to turn off the quest module really takes away some of the great functionality of the addon.

Sounds like a communication issue.

if it was only when grouped I could see that... but since it's happening to him solo aswell i'm not sure. while the quest log window is delayed in it's updates, it shouldn't be causing a full client lockup... and with no errors or bug reports I really can't say what could be causing it

Is it happening for your wife aswell? or just yourself... and do you have bugswatter or some other lua error catching installed / enabled? can you install them to see if anything comes up?

Same for me. Everytime i get a new quest or any quest objective is updated the game locks for a second. Unfortunately there is no errormessage coming up in swatter. When i disable the quest module everything works fine. I tried to disable all other addons, but the error remains.


Edit: For me the problem exists only on my lvl 90 char. Actually questing with my alt on lvl 37 in western plaguelands works well with no locks.

thanks for responding, it only happens on mine, and there are no errors at all that i can find, it is delayed by about 1 sec before it freezes so i don't know if that's relivent to helping figure out what's going on. if there is any info i can give you to help track down the issue let me know
