Lags when > 20 players

Hello everybody!
We've got a big trouble!
When 20 players connect to our game, it begins to lag.
I didn't modify a network subsystem, I added a support of a DB, it added a little bit of data that is send.
I think lags may be of AI.
Does anybody has some thoughts about this?
Thank you!

If you're using T3D 1.1 I think there's an issue with mission bounds reading all Ai/Player movements every tick. You'll have to search the forums for the solution and to see if it is part of your problem.

Your gave very interesting answers!
I think I gave not enough information with my question, so I gonna correct:
We develop a MMOg, and when I say about 20 players I mean 20 real players, who connect to the game server from client.
May be it clarify this situation.
Steve said about a problem with AIPlayer in Torque 1.1. Is this problem corrected in Torque 1.2? We're using Torque 1.1 now. And if this problem was really corrected, we will move to this version.

I placed 100 bots and had 0.8 fps without this fix
Then I inserted this fix and now I have 80 fps

I think you can also use the NetGraph by pressing N while in the game.
The window will show up in the upper right of the game window. It too, may help you track down the issue.
Last thing I can suggest is the forums here have tips on tweaking the network settings, there are several posts that talk about it, but I don't have those links ready for post here.
Hope that helps.
