A huge pile of packages doing nothing shouldn't create any lag

I looked at the file and it seems to do that a lot, and there are many instances of zig-zagging.

Imagine a server.
Filled with at least 50 weapons each with their own package for the light AND trigger commands.
Now, imagine that server with 50 people, each firing at a rate of a simple 10 bullets per minute, and each using the light key to reload around once a minute.
That's over 458 function calls per second.
Raise that bullet rate to 30 bullets per minute, and you have to raise the reload rate to around 3 times per minute.
That's 1,375 functions calls per second. And when there's a large battle going on, that can raise upwards of 2300 function calls per second.
For torque, that's a damn lot to handle.

It's the weapons.

Yeah, that might be a good indication. It doesn't look like anything is being deliberately spammed, though. Possible that with all the calls to onTrigger you'd get hosting a 40 person deathmatch, that unbelievably stuffty mess of packages is causing some minor impact that builds up.

And when you place a dirt on a 64x brick that's almost 30000 iterations of one function at once, lagging a full server for about 1 second.
