Why does my custom loading screen lag?

My custom loading screen lags as shown here:

It does lag in the normal Roblox client too.

Code 
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedFirst = game:GetService("ReplicatedFirst")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer 
local playerGui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")

-- Instances:

local Loading = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
local Frame = Instance.new("Frame")
local Logo = Instance.new("ImageLabel")
local Ring = Instance.new("ImageLabel")
local Welcome = Instance.new("TextLabel")

-- Check if they're a new user:

--if player.AccountAge < 30 then
--	player:Kick("Your account is younger than 30 days.")
--end temp disable

--Properties:

Loading.Name = "Loading"
Loading.Parent = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
Loading.ZIndexBehavior = Enum.ZIndexBehavior.Sibling

Frame.Parent = Loading
Frame.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(35, 39, 42)
Frame.Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0)
Frame.ZIndex = 1000

Logo.Name = "Logo"
Logo.Parent = Frame

	-1, -- How many times you want the tween to repeat. If you make it less than 0 it will repeat forever.
	false, -- Reverse?
	0 -- Delay
)


local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local tween = TweenService:Create(Ring, tweenInfo, { Rotation=360 })
tween:Play()

tips = {
	"Remember! Licking doornobs is illegal on other planets.",
	"Hungry? Head to the cafeteria to grab some delicious 'pizza'!",
	"Want a break? Head to our relaxation facility!"
}

changeEnabled = true

function changeText()
	while changeEnabled do
		Welcome.Text = tips[math.random(1, #tips)]
		wait(5)
	end
	coroutine.yield()
end

local textChangeCoRoutine = coroutine.wrap(changeText)

textChangeCoRoutine()

if not game:IsLoaded() then
	game.Loaded:Wait()
end

print("Game Loaded!")

Welcome.Text = "Loaded!"

changeEnabled = false

wait(6)

function callback()
	Loading:Destroy() -- Remove the loader so it doesn't lag the game.
	
	script:Destroy() -- Just to be safe :)
end

Frame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,1,0), Enum.EasingDirection.Out, Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, 1, false)

wait(5)

callback()

How can I fix this, if I even can?

Thanks!

I have tried it in an actual server, it still lags.

I can try using spawn functions, no idea how they work though.

How about first displaying a still screen then when the loading screen has loaded then make it appear. It’s obvious to all of us that it hasn’t loaded yet in the example you have provided us with.

I’d say that looks like normal game lag. Have you tried disabling the loading screen to see if the default one also lags or goes away while the game is still loading in?

I’m gonna +1 suspect’s suggestion that it may be due to some other issues. I copied your script into a blank place with nothing else and had no issues loading in.

Probably due to no parts in the workspace.
