I made it so when you log in it does not do a DNS query each single time. This was bad coding on RunUO's part and was most likely the cause of the random freezes. (the DNS server has been acting up making queries slower) Now it queries the DNS server ONCE then caches the IP until server is restarted.

So "verifying account" should be much much faster now. Hopefully this also fixed the freeze issue.

Well through the testing we've done, it was a great indicator that was a major culprit. Hopefully it fixed up those spikings nicely.
