Confirmed

No, that doesn't sound right.

@Marc Steene
There appears to be an issue with this at the moment, use plrmoveifused=x if you can while I work on a fix. I don't think that save/load changes really come under the remit for this update, but I do see your point.
resetglobalsonreload=0 only retains values between levels, not between saves.
As for performance.
Water and Dark AI have the biggest hit
Followed by overly long scripts
Large textures and lightmaps also cause lag.
Physics isn't a massive drain, but anything that requires a raycast (e.g. floor finding, shooting,etc.) will have it's toll.
Calculating distances is a very quick operation and shouldn't cause a major hit.
In general, keeping rooms to a sensible size, using enemies intelligently, and keeping your textures sizes down will yeild the best results.
