Blue Sphere ~ Lag Error

This particular scenario was brought up in Sonic Retro, so I explored it further.
As you can see, the lag is insane at points, making play almost impossible as the game tries to calculate which spheres to turn into rings.
Code for the level is 3253 1444 7528

How do you even get to the "NO WAY" section?

[SonikkuHedgehog]

Either by locking-on Sonic 1 or a non-sonic game with Sonic and Knuckles. With an emulator, you need to find a rom that is already locked on, which is usually Sonic 1 with Sonic & Knuckles.

Is there a way to overload, crash or permanently freeze the the game due to this calculation lag?

[SonikkuHedgehog]

I've tried to crash it with this stage, but I can't get it to do so. If I can get the password to one with a bigger outer radius, it might be possible.

I can hear the poor genesis yelling from processing that. It's like it's having trouble grasping its own awesomeness

Sonic will get that next blue sphere, even if it takes him all day.

interesting discovery, I guess the programmers expected the players to go all the way round.
