How do you make your big houses playable?
I've asked in the past about what to void of build elements to limit lag on larger lots, so that's not what I'm asking now. I just would like to know how big mansions/castles you actually play without...

I think the computer might be too low-end for your needs. Even when I played on a Dell desktop with onboard graphics, I never had a problem with lag in regards to house size. And all it had was a Core i5 and 8 GB of RAM
But was that a new save, or an old one with lots of households played rotationally?
You could try replace all your CC temporarily with maxis objects and see if it makes any difference to how the lot runs. Then you'll know if it's the save or just some bad CC.
I already found that the lot works 100 times better when imported to a fresh save. So I concluded that my save being 9 RL years old is my main problem. It only affects this huge lot, smaller/regular sized lots works okayish.
Maybe if you delete the cache files it will help? I am not sure how age of save file would contribute to lag, unless maybe it's large number of sims in it and needs to keep track of everyone for things like neighbourhood stories and such.
