Summary0006341: Ridiculous amount of contaminants regenerates endlessly
DescriptionI started noticing some extreme lag, and did my usual anti-lag procedures: use DFhack's clean command, fix/fat-dwarves, etc. This did nothing. Then I tried clean again, and it cleaned off exactly the same number of contaminants from exactly the same number of things. If I used the clean command multiple times without unpausing, only the first would do anything, but as soon as I unpause, all of the contaminants would reappear.

The amount is also ridiculous; 3395 contaminants on 86 creatures. (along with a few thousand on plants and items, but only one per plant/item).

This renders the game unplayable. Any tips for fixing it?

...well now I feel like an idiot. The contaminants were all water, and it was raining. Ignore this report, please.

I'll resolve this, then, but as a duplicate of 0000296 - contaminant lag is an issue.
