I get the feeling that bloodspatters and such on forbidden items (goblin loot) add to the FPS drain, even though the items the spatters are on are forbidden.
So nowadays, after each siege, I go through all heaps of forbidden loot, and look at each item, then dump and atomsmash all items that aren't clean (escpecially weapons with pages, and more pages of bloodspatters).
It does seem to help my FPS (not greatly, but still, with 35 dwarves, 15 FPS, every little bit helps).

For similar reasons, I deconstruct and reconstruct my weapon traps every few months, for they also gather a *lot* of spatters.

If you embark on a rainy area, will that help wash the spatters away, if they're outside?

I think its been confirmed that contaminents can cause massive amouts of lag however does replacing blood with water coverings help?
Although I suppose that one water covering really must be much easier than 50 goblins named blood.

- Yes, rain cleans off contaminants. But I turned off weather to preserve FPS

- Water coverings disappear very quickly.
