Spawing of Minions causes server latency spikes with Rampage enabled

When minions are spawned with enough monsters on the screen, server(s) lag significantly and sometimes go past 1000 ping. When I used Lockstep with this I actually had fully disconnected once. Rampage effects still cause server spikes with this setup. I cast 5 zombies, 30ish Summon Raging Spirits, and Vaal Summon Skeletons. When other enemy monsters spawn from Beyond portals the lag climbs unbearably high. This occurs when i'm playing solo and with a party. Take note of the latency spikes in the screenshots.

Same issues. Play SRS and run some zombies. Even just using SRS lags my whole party when Rampage hits a tier. When rampage was turned off last night it 100% stopped lagging.

I am sure ISPs play a part in how badly this affects players, but it is clearly not optimised with lock-step and many characters/minions.

Please turn this off untill its truly fixed. This is unplayable.

Playing on EU, tried all the gateways.

I'm playing dominating blow using flesh and spirit gloves and this actually makes the game unplayable. It looks like a powerpoint presentation with lockstep turned on. Constant ms spikes going up to ~300-400. I actually cannot play the game like this. When swapping to other gloves the game plays normally (30ms constant).

Please fix!

Here's a screenshot of what im talking about... Look at the latency... without the rampage effect I get a solid 30ms on DC gateway.
