Sigh tweaked and got everything just right in your UI Kait to just go into a flex and suffer horrific lag which seems to cleared instantly the moment I went back to my old UI.
Not sure the cause however but it did give me a major insight to weakaura's an addon I had never used before and is really helping with tracking rather than relying on classtimers
Hmm i haven't tried a flex raid yet. It might WeakAuras itself possibly needing an update. You can specify auras to load in instance types but Flex is not listed so maybe it spazzes out from that? As no update yet maybe try to disable that type of loading on all auras (off the top of my head I think the Killing Blow group auras load for instance types and maybe the PvP combat aura group also)
As a general way to track things I've always felt that WA has a subtle (but not unique) benefit in that because you have to manually name everything you want to track it makes you pause and consider whether you really need to track that thing. For me the main method I use for making UIs show everything I personally need to know and nothing more is to run each and every element of the UI through the simple test "will this information ever make me change what button I am going to press next, or how I move my character?". It's amazing how often the answer is no.
That's what I was finding, I was tracking every trinket proc, every small temporary buff but at the end of it primarily it was not going to change too much what I was doing.
The lag wasn't just in flex but combat in general, will have another bash at it and see if I can find the issue as I did like the simplicity aspect (I have stolen your missle icons though :P )
EDIT: everything was updated that wasn't flagged as "modified" within curse client.

Digging into Kait's UI currently, (looks great Kait!), primarily only changed the center auras and such (since I am playing SPriest - not Mage).
I will flay your mind.
Most of that is a UI by a single author, Goldpaw's gUI3 (MoP) @ Curse.
