Lag Eliminating Mission

[colinjames12]

Hi, I'm having a hard time figuring out where the lag in my map is coming from. Everytime I test it, lag starts to occur after 20 - 30 minutes then it gets worse every after 20 - 30 minutes. So I'm gonna try to post all the most frequently running triggers in my map. Please tell me if these triggers have memory leaks or will they cause any lag?

Lots of things leak o.o
Pretty much local vars that extend a handle i believe
most common ones are units, groups, forces, locs, effects, etc

for the nth time, I already know what a memory leak is. Please take a look at my triggers first.
Here's my map if someone wants to check it out. The amount of variables and triggers may give you a headache but at least take a look at the ones with periodic events.

That's at least 30+ periodic triggers with 0.03 second intervals. If you compare that with DotA, which has 6 periodic triggers and the shortest interval is 0.5 seconds and those which have intervals below 2 seconds are local triggers and are destroyed at the end of the function.

You don't say.
