OnDispenserGather taking abnormally long, resulting in server crash

So, I got a notification from my players that the server had crashed while I was at work. I took a look at the logs when they reported the crash, and it looks as though it might have been from LootAudit. I'm seeing that one of my players at the time of the crash was gathering wood from a tree, and then it crashed. Here's what my RCON outputted.

As you can see some of these actions are taking almost 2 seconds to complete. I can provide you with the full log of the day if you DM me.

How many people are you logging on the server?

Less then 5. At the time of this issue, it was one dude doing all this.

Nobody else was on the server.

yeah, this is part of the reason I am doing a complete re-write of the plug.... to make it more performant...
nothing I can do about it with the current code, it's rare but it can be an issue with some servers depending on the resources available and other plugins used....
I am making good headway on the re-write, so all I can say for now is the new plugin (will be posting as a new plugin) is much better for performance.

Changed Status from Pending to Closed

Changed Fixed In to 1.3.9
