Be aware that small sized monks do unarmed damage of one die lower than medium sized monks. For example, max damage for a medium sized monk is 1-20, for small monks it's 1-12. Small races are halflings and gnomes, but not dwarves.
I've noticed very little lag anywhere in the game. Like you said, some conversations are slow to pop up the replies. A few areas, like near portals with lots of spell effects, or when you enter a zone with a few dozen monsters, can be a little laggy, but it's never bad.
