We hope we can be of assistance with this. Thank you for visiting the FINAL FANTASY XIV Technical Support Forums!
Also not the OP but feel it best to just respond here instead of creating additional compounding threads.
Since Tuesdays (5/9/23) long NA Data Center maintenance, I have been having a lot of intermittent lag within instanced areas. Doesn't seem to matter which instanced content I'm participating in (observed in dungeon roulettes, alliance raid roulettes, Eureka, Eureka Orthos). Behavior will appear as if I'm on an unstable connection and everything on screen will just freeze in place randomly from one second and at worse up to five seconds. No disconnects have occurred as a result of this but it has made gameplay content difficult if not impossible to complete since time sensitive mechanics cannot be reliably handled. This behavior was not experienced at all prior to the latest patch and my setup has not changed after that patch.

Platform: PC (Standalone Client)
Connection Type: Wired, Fiber Internet
Region: NA (US Central)
Game Server: Aether/Cactuar
