Long log ins and other lag issues.

I'm not sure what good it will do, but I was told by tech support to post this here. So here it is. Ever since the update it's been taking 1-2 minutes to log in to the game after picking the character. Doesn't matter which one, but my main character is so bogged down when I finally get in that he's red dotted for almost 2 minutes. I used to only have this kind of problem when my inventory got super cluttered and getting rid of excess junk solved it. no such luck now. It's also been happening on toons that don't have anywhere near full inventories. I've done speed tests and reset my modem yada yada, but nothing has helped. My DSL checks fine. All my other online activities have no problems. If anyone else knows anything about this, or is experiencing the same issues, speak up.
