So I am having an issue I do not remember having when I previous played. I am curious if this is a known issue (I looked for an hour) or if someone knows a solution to fix it.

I am getting 200+ FPS (Have a GTX 2070 super) but when I open the map my framerate appears to drop though the actual FPS is not decreasing. But it is noticeable that the game is dropping frames. The easiest way I can explain it is if you are tabbed out to look at a website and have DDO in the background and have seen your your game framerate appear chopping until you tab back over to the game, that is what it looks like when I have the map open.

Some basic troubleshooting I have done is that when I make the map large, the game really slows down and the framerate decreases (even though the FPS still shows 200+). If I make the map small then the performance issue nearly disappears.

What I think is happening is that DDO UI system is a bit weird and when you open up a map or any UI feature like the store or character page, windows/game is actually like DDO the game is no in the background and is dropping the DPS while you have one of the game UI features open.

So my question is this already know and is there a solution?
