Game slows down immensely after a few months of sim

Hello,
For reference I have a an amd 5600x cpu / ssd and 16 gb of ddr-4 3200 memory.

By the time I get to June or July In a fresh league (All settings default) the game begins to slow to a crawl. Mainly my cursor, for example when I’m in my roster screen trying to drag a player who cleared waivers to the bottom edge to release him, has noticeable lag and the problem seems to get worse and worse.

If I exit and reload the game it starts out good again but then inevitably slows again.

You can try changing the resolution in game settings rather than closing and reopening. That will usually fix it for a few months.

Help! I have the same problem. I don't think it has anything to do with in-game advancement. Loading fresh save and it starts good, but after a while a noticeable interface lag occurs. Reloading the game it starts good and after a while it lags again.

I've had this issue since OOTP 22. Posted a few times about it & gave some debug logs, but never got a resolution.

I have an i7-8700k, Samsung 960 Pro NVMe PCIe M.2 512GB, RTX 3080-TI, Corsair CMR16GX4M2C3466C16 4x8GB, on Win 10. First monitor was 4K @ 60hz, this second one is Gsync compatible, but don't think there's any diff there (except it seems to degrade faster if I set it to unlimited frames in the game instead of, say, 60).

There is a way to reset this lag -- go into the main "Settings" page & you don't even have to change anything, just click "OK" ... this will "reset" things to how smooth it was when you first loaded the game & then it'll slowly degrade again from there.

& related to up above; I've noticed that the higher the settings I use (such as 16x Anisotropic filter), the quicker it degrades. Using the NVIDIA control panel to override application's anisotropic settings & setting this to disabled in game, results in the game being smoother for a longer period of time.
