The modpack I'm currently working on uses Buildcraft extensively. We have a test server running, and according to Lag Goggles, Buildcraft is frequently causing performance issues.

I've found a few specific situations where Buildcraft has the biggest performance issues:

1. Redstone engines: These consistently use 100-150 microseconds per tick, even when not active or attached to a pipe.

2. Assembly tables with items inside: If an assembly table as items in the left side of the inventory, it will use up around 100 microseconds per tick. This doesn't happen if the GUI is empty.

3. Pipes with high throughput: Pipes are fine while idle, but when several items per second are going through them it quickly becomes a performance issue. A single gold pipe can use 20 microseconds per tick. Due to the nature of the mod, this can add up fast.
