Is fleet lag caused by your own computer having to render all those ships?
Or is it caused by all the inforamation having to be sent through the 'pipes' as it were.
Yes.

Yes.
Um yes to both I would assume then?
So then you would effectivally cut the work load in half if our own personal computers had nothing to do other then render various sized retangles. With advanced settings it could be about as difficult as rendering pac-man 3D, which even my 486 did pretty well in its day.
So if not rendering ships, and I hope this would reduce at least some of the info needed to pass from CCP's servers to our machine... You are left with mostly server side lag right?
So the question is, how much server side lag is thier really? I would assume that only sending raw data and with the upgrades to the servers that it is actually less then the majority of the people think.

Lots of people have asked for this sorta thing before. CCP's response has always been a flat "no". They don't want their gorgeous looking game being turned into a bunch of colored brackets (paraphrased that). Fair enough, thats their choice, long as they realize people quit the game over this type of issue (and I'm sure a lot have already).
I hope they get the fleet battle lag sorted for Shiva. Seems everything is waiting on Shiva
