0007093: Flying creatures stuck in the skies, possibly causing massive FPS drops due to broken pathfinding
There are a bunch of Giant Thripses floating in the same tile several Z-levels high for years now. The fortress only has 21 dwarves and is a 3x3 embark, but my FPS is only around 30-40 where it normally would be several hundred.

My suspicion is that the pathfinding is in some kind of infinite loop causing the FPS to die.

Find the thrips with the unit list - they're near the bottom of the map.
