It may well be the server but even so 5000/50 seems a little high for
AQ2, I'm not sure why it is, maybe its to do with the maps generally
having more area visible to the player at a time but I found I had to
drop a notch or 2 coming from Q2.
On a good day I'll play at 40fps but when its busy I have to drop to
30fps. 
YMMV, give it a twiddle and see.
