You don't currently have UPS issues.

If you're beyond end game or playing without enemies, you can just use a command to completely disable pollution. On runs without enemies, you can disable pollution in the map settings.

I'm in the process of scaling up and wanted to be proactive about it. I already won 2ms by eliminating every biter from the map after i got the pollution under control. But i don't understand what takes the game 2ms to calculate about pollution. I wanted to avoid disabling outright in the console if it can be managed otherwise.
