Experienced this issue on TNP Limitless 5 v2.7.0:

Ticks per second dropped to anywhere from 6-8 when using these pipes. We were using upwards of 600 plus cables in order to provide and receive from garden cloches. Once removed the TPS returned to 20 like normal. Here is a brief section of the profiling text from running /perf start in console.

[00] tick(74/1) - 99.88%/99.88%
[01] | #getChunkCacheMiss 304/4
