LordAndrew	Hi there Radied. There isn't really a "disable lag" feature in version 500+. Could you elaborate more on what you mean?

One of the recent additions was moving some map handling to a separate thread for the server, which could improve performance for larger games. If that's what you mean, the most recent version allows you to disable it thusly:

Setting "map-threads off" in cfg/seeker.txt or cfg/daemon.txt will turn off the new 502 multithreading for maps in Dream Seeker or Dream Daemon, respectively, while still allowing the server to operate separate from the UI via the normal multithreading.
