Resized Plants

The Bogs, Crossroads, Great Canopy, Heart of the Forest, and similar areas have always been difficult for me to travel through. For months and years I've been wondering why, but only recently have really looked at what happens when my screen freezes up in certain spots.

It seems to be resized plants, willow trees especially, that are made bigger or smaller. My screen freezes up for several seconds while they load when I come within range of these, and if they are near a transition, we're looking at a change of 6 seconds to transition to upwards of 20 seconds. I could be wrong about the cause but this seems to be it.

Needless to say this is crippling and dangerous, as many of these areas are full of monsters, especially the Bogs where nearby vines may kill me before I'm able to see again.

There are two places in particular that this happens:
-South-west part of the Bogs, where there are two willow trees that are apparently smaller.
-Crossroads, near the Pass of Rabannatha, but that may be the large dragon statues.

My questions are this:
-How many others have this problem?
-Is there a way to fix it?

There is a fix somewhere to 1.69 material specifically, to make it less choppy and and make the files more compact; this might solve your problem. On another note, placeables can't be resized, only NPC's. I've this problem myself, but I just can't bother with it. <_<
