NS2 Recent stutters - profile Image provided

Hi, this is my first post so hey guys. I'm quite a regular player and love this game to death!! Unfortunately have only just recently been having problems with the game stuttering for around 2-3 seconds at a time, I've searched high and low for a solution to my problem and so far have had no joy.

Things I've tried:

Defaulting all settings for NS2.
Complete NS2 Re-installment.
Lowering all settings in game.

Also, I read in another post a member I believe his name was IronHorse recommended using the profile command as a means to record and analyse the stutters. Below I've attached an image what I believe to be relevant to the cause of the stutters. However if this is incorrect, please could you advise me on where I'm going wrong?

I'm not going to pretend I know what's going on, but "Game ms" being over "1000", and the "ClientGame::Update 1137950us total" parts seems like suspiciously high numbers. This is just my guess though.

This seems to have only recently started, can't quite put my finger on what it is. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Again, apologies if this thread is too bland to identify any problems.

Thanks,

Seperim.

    This is a problem I see often in GorgeCraft:

    2014-05-21_00002_zpsffdf7324.jpg

    As you'll notice, it is not currently spiking in this screenshot, but it does once more models are added.
    I noticed it massively reduced when I removed animations from models, and it increased again when I had to add some in. My guess is it is something to do with the model animation chain. It is easily reproducible in GorgeCraft, just build a few of the animated buildings and you will see it. Probably be able to use similar steps to recreate in vanilla..

    If it helps, I'll link my tech_support from this GorgeCraft version of the error when it has finished zipping. I will see if I can make it occur in vanilla as well for you.
