I thought it was the growth of cities but I set growth factor to 0 and the lag was still there. Also I saw buildings upgrade when growth factor was set to 0. Does that mean the setting isn’t working?

Here I provide the savegame: Tossi1.testtrack.sav
and my little mods if they are needed but they only alter the base game: mods.zip

Does anyone else experience the same freeze at the end of the month?
Do you know the exact reason why in this game the freeze is so HUGE?

Now that I think about it maybe I should post this topic in the support forum.

I know about the usual freeze, but this map isnt even that big and developed and it freezes like hell.

Thank you for providing the savegame and mods. I will have a look into it as soon as possible.

Because I wanted to keep the cities small to prevent lag I surrounded them by rails. And it seems when cities are blocked like that it increases end of the month freezes a lot. Once you remove those rails freeze is almost gone but then cities grow huge and it as back. No way to keep the game running smooth I guess.
