I got one of those lagspikes myself the other day... on Hagara, right
when the frost phase was starting - you can imagine the amount of
swear words going through my mind rofl. Thankfully it unfroze in time
for me to move, and even more luckily the ice thingy spawned right in
front of me not right under me! Only happened once so I'm hoping that
was a one-off rather than a regular thing.

If it happens in raids, perhaps you could test it by forming a raid
group with one other person (friend/guildy?) Might have to zone into a
raid instance too to test, but if you can reproduce it then, then you
can do your addon testing to your hearts content as long as the other
person's cool with it. Agree about the logging being a pain though,
tends to put me off testing my addons for bugs; unless they're really
bad I just put up with them and hope they go away!
