Description
I was trying to figure out why it took so long to spawn a character into a world and it turned out that because I was printing the world table it took several seconds (10+) until the next line of code were executed.
Some of the functions in my game return tables that contain a whole world, aka. multiple sub-tables with alot of properties like position, parts etc.
Basically some functions return huge tables, not for printing but for reference in other scripts. If you print these tables a huge lag occures every time. Even if you dont expand the table!
Where
This happens in studio, I’m not sure if it occures online.
When
Noticed this behaviour yesterday but I believe it’s been a thing ever since the Output window remake came out.

Simply press play and notice the lag that occures inbetween the table being printed and the
print(“End”)
line being executed.
