I have very few of the problems you are describing, except some lag during an OP battle or similar. To counteer this I turn off Micro Veg and that helps considerably.
I am playing on a Mac and so I know memory etc works differently. I have noticed that cpu usage is maxed out when playing Ryzom, but If I start another app Ryzom makes room for that. I am very often streaming video (sometimes multiple sources) in the background with almost no ill effects.
My ping is around 200 which I know is not as good as some, better than others. Maybe your connection is part of the problem.
