Have you started to disable/uninstall packs?
Yesterday I disabled the lovestruck expansion pack in my save. The reason was because I noticed that my loading times in my save started to increase more and more to the point where I had to wait a v...

I have noticed my save from 2014 is also lagging quite badly. I have thought about moving some of my sims to a different game. I made a scenario save, moved a couple of sims I hadn’t played yet to that save. I’m thinking I need to move a few more over. I don’t use mods or CC, but I do own all the packs and kits. I have a good gaming laptop but it is a hybrid and not an SSD which I bought around 2017 or 2018. I’m hoping to get a couple more years of use from it before getting a new SSD gaming laptop. I have started turning settings to a little less clarity also. I wish the sims team could see a way to improve the lag, I know nothing about that end of things, not sure if the engine can handle that, but I sure wish they could find a way to increase the sims count. I have a few singles in my game that are using the dating app. The app also draws people in from outside the game ( for lovestruck ). I have also heard that the amount of things in a sims inventory also matters. I have a lot of sims with many harvestable in inventory and storage boxes.
Goid Luck! I hope the sims team can improve things.
I have noticed that they are doing performance updates, but as far as these older save files I think it's difficult for them to improve. I think the best one can do is be mindful about what packs to install and maybe be prepared to maybe have to make a new save one day. But I wouldn't really want to do that, in this old save I have done so many different things with many different households and if I would start a new save I would probably want to do that all over again and... I don't think I would find the strength to do that.
That's a good tip that I guess I could start moving some sims over, and not think about moving them all over at once.
My one save file is pretty old as well. What I would do different, if I needed to create a new one, would be to keep all the Townies and just create one sim of my own (my Dulci).
While I love all of the sims I've created for each world (at least one, but sometimes as many as three different households), I've recently become fascinated with the pre-made Townies and how interacting with more of them could be.
Yeah the premade sims are interesting because I have given them makeovers and if I would start a new save I would probably want to do those makeovers again. I wouldn't want to paste them from my old save because that would remove the relationships they have and they would also have too many skills. So I actually looked up if there was a way that you could copy the entire look of a sim to another sim and there is, you can do that with MC Cas in MC Command Center, you can copy the entire look and body of a sim and paste unto another sim.
Here is a demonstration where I tried it where I took Kaori from my old save, saved her and then I copied her look to the premade Kaori in a new save.
