Nearly unplayable lag on Temporal Warden only

The game started lagging horribly when my temp warden reached level 28 or so, but I don't recall exactly when. I've swapped out all of my items, so I don't think that's the issue. The game doesn't actually crash, and none of the logs that I looked at showed any Lua errors. After an engine reboot, the game is moderately playable for about 5 minutes, but then it starts hanging again. Everything runs perfectly on any other character (including a new temp warden). Any ideas?

1.3.1
W7 64bit
no add-ons

Yeah, I have an idea. This one fantastic ability called warden's call. Would I be correct?

I mean, I obviously have the ability, but the game wasn't lagging for a long time even after I skilled it. Also, this isn't combat-restricted (happens on the world map and in towns too).

It might also be hounds, but I'm not sure if you have those. Anyways, wardens call and probably a few other abilities seem to cause memory leaks.

Eh, it's probably just the Warden's Call that permanently bogs down the game for that session. Is there a way to disable passives?

Yeah. Don't get it in the first place. Though, from my experience with a temporal warden, I could usually clear about 7 floors of a dungeon or so before having to restart from excessive memory consumption. Then again, my computer is relatively new. My suggestion would be to play a different character until someone can pinpoint the memory leaks and fix them in 1.3.2. Hopefully.

It doesn't make sense to me why you wouldn't be able to toggle passives (or why there hasn't been an add-on introduced to do so). I upgraded most of the parts in my rig less than a year ago and it can run most new games on the highest quality no problem, but I can only get through about 4-5 enemies before the game becomes unplayable. Oh well, so long TW.

It doesn't make sense to me that people would want to turn awesome buffs off.

Most passives completely drawback free. There's not really a reason for a toggle.

Adding more customization for what should be no effort on the part of the developer can't be a bad thing though. Besides, you never know what kind of self-imposed challenges people want to try. De gustibus nil est disputandum and whatnot.

I hope this gets addressed! temporal wardens are very interesting and fun, but I ran into this exact issue when I picked up warden's call.
