When your game starts lagging after a few minutes, go to windows task manager (without quitting the game i.e. press ctrl-alt-del) and click the Processes tab, then find GTAIV.exe on the list, right click it and set priority to realtime. Should solve it

Question...

Is it lagging for people who prior to the patch had no lag?

hmmm, new thread time I think
