Then theres really nothing you can do about the lag. Maybe go to the lowest graphical settings possible and put your draw distance down between 60-80.
Okay, did that, and I'll just have to see how it works now.

Eeks, now your packet loss is still way too high. Information is getting lost somewhere along your connection. Are you running on wifi or hard wired?
Packet lose as explained by @Coffee PancakePancake
Well when I came back recently I installed the latest release of FS, so that's good, and all this is a bit over my head, but here's my networks prefs

Its your system, honestly.
Well there's nothing I can do about that.

I'm running hardwired, CAT5 ethernet to the router. I don't do WiFi here.

Your ping is high. That tells me its a connection issue. As Jaylin said, we don't know your system specs either.
What does it mean that my ping is high?
I'm on a late 2012 Mac Mini running 10.12.6 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 ram, graphics Intet HD Graphics 4000 1536 mb

So now it becomes more complicated. We don't yet know your system specs, or your graphics settings or draw distance.
If your FPS remains low (<10 fps), you could fly to other regions around you with your draw distance at 96, and see how your FPS changes. But you have to wait for all the textures to rezz in and cache in each region. If one region is bad, others will not always be. In the houseboat region, I could get FPS from 40 to 5 by walking to a different region. It all depends on what the other residents have rezzed and running.
Well I was sure it would get more complicated, but I'm doing better now after the restart, and it's good enough for me.

My house rezzed really fast this time and I'm not getting the lag I had before, so it did some good I can tell.

You have packet loss. Log out. Try rebooting your modem (unplug for 3-4 minutes and plug back in). Log back. Check those stats again.
Okay, I"m back, here's the stats:

Aha! Thank you Rowan! I'll try that right away! Back in a few.

This is in my house in Belliseria, and I can see only one other person in the neighborhood.

OK, but collapse the Advanced branch now, and Expand the Simulator and Time branches. So it looks like mine.
If it is too many scripts, you want to see what the Simulator for your region is doing, and how the Simulator is using it's Time frame cycle.

Can you show us your Statistics panel, like mine below? Any scripts on your region will contribute to script lag if there are too many running. Stats window is Ctrll+Shift+1 Also where is your draw distance? Mine was set at 138 m for the stats below, and FPS was 16. If I set my dd to 76 m, my FPS increases to 41 FPS. (I have my FPS capped at 40 FPS in Preferences.) You are not alone if there are other homes and landscaping on your region.
I don't know where to find that.

Lag is just a part of Second Life and always will be. More scripts running in a sim = more lag. Heavily landscaped sims are notorious for this since texture and resize scripts aren't removed.
Yeah, I get that, but in my house? In empty sims? My avi complexity is around 62k, and I'm not running any scripts, and still laaaaaaaaag.

Oceana Ballroom seems to have changed to: SECRET LIFE LOUNGE - Where Class Meets Erotica
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Seven Angels/33/252/22 Might not be what you were looking for.
They have a Lingerie night on Mondays, and a monthly formal, which was cancelled for July 4th. That's all in the Notices now.
Well that explains why I could not find it, and no, it's not what I am looking for. Lingerie night? I really don't think so.

How is that relevant?

Maybe it's just me and my connection, but seems like everywhere is extra laggy today, orange clouds linger a long time everywhere and I get bad lag even in my house. Is this something that happens from time to time? I'm getting real lag in empty sims. Is there some LL issue that causes this?

Sweethearts Jazz used to be popular.
Yes, it did, but I just went there and it's totally empty.

Oceana IS on adult land.
Okay, I searched in adult land, and I find Oceana Cove, but no ballroom.

On that page above, if you hit view on map, it gives you the map coordinates. The join now button is to join SL and not the group.
Okay but I still cannot get there. I just get a landmark for some adult resort, and it's not listed in Web Search that I can find, though the group for it is.

https://secondlife.com/destination/oceana-ballroom-dance The Oceana Ballroom is nice and there's a few more in the Destination Guide below this listing ♥ 💃🕺 ♫ I've heard quite a few people like Romance in the Clouds also. I hope you find one which you like ♥
Well I can only join the group with that link, it's not an LM, so I can't get there and I can't find it in web search in my viewer. Trying to go to the place on the map gave me an adult resort of some kind.

Hey Rowan, I went to Foxies and it seemed that it was only couples there, all the guys had their women with them already, so no meeting men there. Also, the dance floor is black, so if you are wearing a black formal you can't see most of yourself. Back to Frank's.

Don't get me wrong, I really like Frank's, but sometimes it's a bit flat there. I've looked at the other places I have LM's for, and there's never anyone there. I really enjoy putting on a formal and going dancing with nice men, but can there really be only one place in SL to do that? Seems like it. I've been away for a couple years and I'm hoping something else as good has opened up in that time. Formal dress code preferred.
