I have been experiencing issues with lag on Minecraft PS4. The world my friend and I play on has lag spikes in the game which freezes the game for both of us. Is there any way to at least reduce the lag from occurring often?

I'm playing split screen on PS4. We are getting the same issue. We've noticed a few things:
It's at its worst when we are both in the same space. To the degree that we now avoid being in the same space, it makes the game borderline unplayable.
A beacon makes it substantially worse.
We've noticed it's drastically worse at dawn and dusk.
Changing graphics settings and render distance had no effect on the lag spikes.
Changing to peaceful and then back to normal seemed to improve it for a short period of time. Which suggests mobs may be an issue? The base we have is also near a village and I've been wondering if something to do with pathfinding might be causing it.
