Okay, if you have enabled the test patch, this is good news actually: it means that the LOD model is used already, without need of any special setting.
You can disable the patch now; should we experience lagging in the vicinity of some dense barrage balloon fields, I will further reduce the number of their vertices

I will reduce the picketing lines (i.e. the lateral wire cables) to a length of about 100 ft (30m): this is the altitude at which balloons were secured before being deployed. As for the central suspension cable, unless there is a special reason for shortening it, it will be bended but not reduced in length, so to allow a realistic max operation altitude of about 4,500 ft (1,370m).
