I don;t think you understand what tidi is or what the actual issue is.
TiDi is the band aid for the servers issues. without tidi large fleet fights are unplayable. No i don;t mean laggy, i mean unplayable, black screens disconnects, hours of black loading. unplayable. TiDi is the remedy for that.
The issue is, eve was build in the age of single core more ghz processors. When the world changed to more cores, eve lagged behind. Some of the old systems don;t scale well for multi core.
This is what a lot of little changes actually do have big impact. Changing some code pieces to scale helps alleviate the pressure that activated tidi.
But there is a lot of projects going on behind the scenes that you will never notice but will improve a lot of stuff. Dogma is in essence the program that deals with ships bonus and interaction (i think) Brain in a box deals with character skills and attributes esp as they go to the ships. These two items being fixed will make a huge difference.
In essence, ccp is working on fixing TiDi.. you just won;t notice it.

there is a thread in GD about the Biab rewrite, it has a lot of information from one of the devs working on it. I can say i do not envy his job.

I get the impression that op was not around before TiDi... you want to see eve break? remove the TiDi Band-Aid before the cause of the bleeding is fixed. Then you will see eve break.
People used to win fights by having more players then the other side in system before a fight. This would cause such lag that as your opponent jumped in all they saw was a black screen. When they finally loaded, they were in a clone vat. or your commands would not register at all. No it was a nightmare. TiDi at least makes eve playable. They just need to finish Dogma, BIAB and other such upgrades.

As this thread was necroed anyway. The dogma rewtire presintation at fan fest showed alot fo the issues they were having. The current ETA for both Dogma and BIAB rewrites is possibly later this summer. Baring some crazy mishap. With testing coming soon. So we may see TIDI be a thing of the past.
One of the more interesting factoids, is that BIAB causes your ship to load the next system 2x faster then currently. or was it 4.. i remember 2x.. hmm.. anyway that is a HUGE improvment
