0005281: Massive Lag outside Keep in Town
Performing any action (moving, travelling, sleeping, etc.) causes Dwarf Fortress to enter a several second period of 100% processor use during which it is unresponsive. Lag is significantly less during travelling, but still significant. This save was playable in general immediately before this, so I don't know what causes this.
Unknown if this affects other worlds, but it makes this particular one unplayable.

I experienced this same thing just today. What's particularly strange, was that it was just that one keep in a town, and not another keep in a different town but the same world.

I also found a goblin corpse right in the entrance (probably a vampire given reporting his/her death got my adventurer fame). Maybe that has something to do with it.

I've observed this as well. I'm guessing it's coming from the dungeon below the keep.
