65 - Spell Casting Lag

I know I should provide more info but I have absolutely no idea how to explain it better or to give more details. Here is what happens: I enabled LUI with all his modules and what I get is sort of casting lag, that happens in combat, and seems to have a behavior similar to when you got server lag. If I disable all modules from LUI, it happens very few times, but is still there. If I disable LUI, it never happens. I tried to disable all addons possible but kept LUI without any modules enabled and started to cast my rotation. Is still there.
So I am assuming that is something in LUI, that when I start doing my rotation on the training dummy or in raids, I get my quartz showing a big red line, and I even get my spells not casted at all. There is absolutely no CPU usage in Addon Profiller when that happens, and my fps are completely stable when it happens. I really love LUI and I would like to be able to continue using it, but the situation as it is at the moment is completely unpleasant, and I feel forced to give up if I don't find any solution for this.
Also, I managed to continously cast the same spell over and over again for about 8 times, without any spell actualy registering. And only happens when LUI is enabled. Ask me any information you want me to post, and I'll do it. The minimal amount of addons needed to be able to cast my rotation on the dummy, was:

Dominos
ForteXorcist
Bindpad

Back from holyday.

Seems like that I have the bug with spell casiting. If I happen to cast a spell, and just before the spell finishes to cast, I cast an instant, happens that a new gcd is triggered, but the spell never happens. Any advices for this? The thing was that when LUI was enabled, it happened much much more then it was happening without. As I said in a previous post, I was able to do like 5 instants (same spell) continuously, the gcd triggered every single time, but the spell was never casted.

I reinstalled all addons, wiped out all settings, I will have to make a big backup, and then to test with LUI, to see if I get the freezes again or not.

Will take some time to do this, as reconfiguring addons like SUF,Grid, will take alot of time. Most likely the weekend will be my friend. As for Cache Folder, is the first thing I do when I have a problem.

Clean Install means a fresh install after you have deleted the 3 folders.

Please give details what you mean by Clean install. Shall I play with LUI only installed?

I reinstalled completely LUI and ForteXorcist so far.

Have you tried a CLEAN install without WTF/Interface/cache folder ?

I will also test today if is happening only when I cast a spell while in a group, though might be useless. I would really like to see some options in LUI to disable the "link" between LUI and some addons completely on demand. This way would be possible to avoid the moment some addon is bugged, or if it doesn't fit with LUI after some patch. I don't want to be left with only the option to disable LUI completely after some patch, due to addon incompatibity.

Also, I want to say that if I would see only the middle of the screen I could tell by the way the game flows if I have LUI enabled or not. Please try to find some workarounds to disable unnecessary stuff, cause LUI is really nice and I don't want to give up on it.

I tryed without fortexorcist, and I did get the freezes in Stormwind, while I was in raid, doing some potions. So might be related to being in raid? Anyway, the point is that it happened less often, but is still there. I raided all night with fortexorcist without LUI and there is nothing wrong with it. I also reinstalled fortexorcist completely, at the end of last week, so it can't be something wrong with it, as it happened before and after I reinstalled it.

Just had quick results on it. I disabled every single module that I could. Though, if all disabled I can still select those from config menu: 1. Bars - all are disabled, but I can still select them and enable/disable one by one. 2. Unitframes - even if disabled, I can still go and click "enable" -intended? 3. Fortexorcist - I disabled all "Lui positioning", though I have enabled those: - Spell Timer - Player & Target - Cooldown Timer

Rest are disabled. Do you think is worth testing without fortexorcist at all? Though I don;t know any better option for this one...

Forgot to add, it still happens.

The addon is called Addon Profiler. I am trying to test LUI without any modules first. I will keep you updated if it happens.
