<div class="IPBDescription">Performance Issues</div>I took a demo to help the DEV's identify some of the performance issues that have been going on. I will try to include as much information as possible.

<!--coloro:#00BFFF--><span style="color:#00BFFF"><!--/coloro-->-<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->There are no mods being used. Game is run as vanilla.
<!--coloro:#00BFFF--><span style="color:#00BFFF"><!--/coloro-->-<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->Pre-caching takes exponentially longer with higher resolution.
<!--coloro:#00BFFF--><span style="color:#00BFFF"><!--/coloro-->-<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->You will notice FPS stuttering throughout the entirety of the game. Early, mid, and late game.
<!--coloro:#00BFFF--><span style="color:#00BFFF"><!--/coloro-->-<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->My native resolution is 1920x1080 (The resolution used in this demo).
<!--coloro:#00BFFF--><span style="color:#00BFFF"><!--/coloro-->-<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->You will see "Waiting for GPU" go all the way up to 45ms at one point while playing at 1920x1080 resolution.
<!--coloro:#00BFFF--><span style="color:#00BFFF"><!--/coloro-->-<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->When playing 1024x768 "Waiting For GPU" always stays at 0ms.

<!--coloro:#00BFFF--><span style="color:#00BFFF"><!--/coloro-->-<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->Given my system specs and game configuration. Why is performance taking such a huge hit?
