Lag improvement suggestion

Hi, from retail Vanilla i remember if you shift loot corpses sometimes it would take some time until it processes through every item and you would have to wait a little bit until you got all the loot from the corpse. Like wasnt there some 400ms loading sometimes?

Wouldnt this help the lag on the server? If people get randomly 1-400ms per item with shift looting, instead of instant looting all items, doesnt this have potential to cause lags?

Also this would help preventing people shift looting several corpses before others can even loot one, especially quest items.

Plus, it would give more blizzlike experience.

This was probably due to people having shitty 1mbit connections back in the day, combined with relatively weak hardware compared to today. Basically not a feature, but a symptom.
