Anecdotal lag reduction
So, most of my saves aren't particularly laggy, but my beloved Super Sim save was APPALLING. One of my Sims peed himself because he was too laggy to use the toilet. No one would go to bed for hours ...

Yes, so much more items your hoard (and have on your house) so more it lags, especially if your Desktop/Laptop are Low/medium. I would not recommend to hoard so much, sims 3 have/had the same problem.
I never had really a lag problem with my sims, self if I played on old hardware. I just have tree simple rules: 1. Don’t hoard 2. Don’t use to much clutter (not 50 Lights, 50 rugs, 150 houseplants!) 3. Have a population control (<-this was special for sims 3)
Uff you have so much money! You should make your bills higher with MCC or use Carls Difficult mod to get rid of this money.
ROTFL yeah so much money, we give it to our adult children from time to time to get rid of some! Maybe we should start a "lottery" where we give some to random townies. And I suppose various NPC in-laws could use some...
My computer isn't the newest but isn't a potato, either, LOL. It has 32GB of RAM and a decent, middle-of-the-line processor and video card.
That much money... it completely changes how you play vampires, lol:
Poor vampire: Go hunting, have a fish tank to buy guppies for $15 each to make plasma packs, breed frogs for plasma packs.
Rich vampire: Less than ten plasma packs in your inventory? buy ten more! Hunt? Oh, I don't know, I'm trying to finish a musical composition for the musical genius aspiration, I'm not sure I can be bothered... 😉
There's a line between doing collections and hoarding and I'm not sure I've found it yet! 😉

So, I did another thing that helped amazingly.
1. Get an ICYA crate.
2. Drag all draggable items from Mom's inventory into the ICYA crate.
3. Use MC Command Center to sell everything else in Mom's inventory.
4. Take all draggable items back out of the crate and into Mom's inventory.
Sadly, I can't do this with Super because she's currently in the detective career and her evidence stacks are not draggable, but... there was a noticeable improvement. Especially in using the spacebar to tab between Sims. Mom was always the one that the spacebar hung up on, and... it's not perfect but it's better. (It cleaned out her old Strangerville evidence, which is probably two years old but was un-removable, and similar items.)
I have seen the bug Carl mentioned here, I think in their flower arranging table, FWIW.
