I'm approaching year 900 in my current game with civilians disabled. No significant slow downs observed.

It's funny that I ran across this thread, since i was having the same issue with horrendous game slowdown. I thought i had NPR's in one of the systems and frantically tried to hunt them down. Turns out I should have been looking closer to home at the 200+ colony ships sitting in orbit around Terra. Since i play with the Commercial Ships turned off, as soon as i turned it on i was blown away by the number of ships sitting there. Once i deleted the worst offenders, the game is back to its old state.
Very much appreciate the assist with figuring this out.
Nope. What you have to do is find a cost 0 colony that has space and set it as a destination so the civvies can unload before you delete them. I find that it is a good policy to do this any time that I stop expanding.
Before purging civilians it's a good idea to check the annual wealth and see how much they contribute to your budget, you don't want want to fast forward bankruptcy.
