Can you change the rate an aura is updating or somehow give it priority to refresh?

For example a Fire Mage's Heating Up/Hot Streak aura would be top prio and any delay is not welcome

WA already react as soon as they receive an aura update event. You can't make it faster, beyond actually just increasing the speed of WA itself.

and how would you increase the speed of WA? sometimes I don't know if it's the game itself lagging, the addon, or something going on in my pc (not computer savvy)

Beyond only using well written auras. And not excessive numbers of them, you don't

#

Any number of things could be contributing towards your UI feeling laggy. It's impossible to say

You can use WA's "profiling" to assist in identifying potential performance issues.

You may access the Real Time Profiling Window by:
• Right-Clicking the WA minimap icon.
• Using slash commands
• Keybinding these commands directly in the Keybinding menu or mouseover the WA Minimap icon for clickables.

Slash commands:
/wa pstart to begin a new profile - optionally include combat, boss, or a number to profile only the next time you are in combat, fight a boss, or the specified amount of time in amount of seconds
/wa pstop to finish a profile, and prepare the results
/wa pprint to view the results

Profiling measures the time each aura took while profiling was active. Thus to profile, for example, an encounter, enable it directly before the pull and disable it directly after the pull.
For an explanation of what the profile results page means see <#pins message>

If you feel like it might be an aura related issue. Or you can use something like Addon Usage to see if there might be other problematic addons.
