Not even sure where to post it...
I've got strange freezings in game. It's not a well known stutter but smth worse - it behaves as if my machine is too weak. When characters (either party members or enemies) move I can see only about one frame of 10. Pretty annoying since I can't manage a battle and easily can get myself killed during those 9 frames which I don't get to see. I saw the similar things when playing without 3D acceleration and there were many graphical effects on the screen. It occurs only when character moves, so if he stands and swings with a sword then everything is okay (though maybe a bit slower than it should be). It happens to me only on two areas of TS - TT0100 (the island where party arrives to) and TT0307 (the last level, where Kachiko lies). I've made a save and tried it on the clean TS install - everything was ok, so some mod appears to be the cause of problem. But I have absolutely no idea what this cause might look like.

The question is - what may cause such a lag when (and only when) a creature moves? On two certain areas? I would blame scripts but everything looks fine. Ideas what else can it be?

I doubt that my weidu log might be of much help here since I've already made a number of changes inside the game. At least I didn't add anything new and didn't touch those two areas.

Do you mean your pc will move, and then boom appears 10 feet away(while everything moves slow), and this repeats itself? If so that happened to me as well. I couldn't localize the problem though to a mod - I thought it was my graphics card. Once in the docks it was raining and was fighting someone (Gnome illusionist iirc), and my PC (and npcs with boots of speed) would move like that with the clock barely moving. I thought the game was about to crash. Of course spells and effects were going off all at once. After the battle and leaving area it went away.

I would say go to Black Wyrm and ask, this isnt a mega install and you are using Vlad's version of BD, Improved Anvil and NeJ.

Exactly. A good thing to know I didn't dream it up :)

As for BWL I doubt I'll be welcomed there with my log and all that stuff that I've changed. Besides it seems not to be because of TS since on a clean install I saw no lag.

I had this along time ago on an older version of SoBH. Take a look around the forum, I know the bug was fixed. It only happened on a few maps.
