Severely Degraded Server Performance when Developer Console is opened

The performance of my game servers become severely degraded whenever the Developer Console is opened. (Likely only as a Developer, but I haven’t tested what would happen as a regular user.)
System Information: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050, 32 GB RAM, AMD Ryzen 5 6-Core Processor 3.59 GHz

Expected behavior

I am fairly positive that this isn’t a result of anything that I added to my game, as this user seems to be having the same issue as me.

yup i’m having the same exact issue, it only occurs WHEN i press f9 either in studio OR a live server, my avg data ping is fine at 50-60ms then suddenly spikes/steadily increase over time and can go all the way to 50,000ms up to 100,000ms essentially freezing/breaking the game.

hopefully this gets fixed soon, i had to disable the dev console in my game to prevent myself from fat fingering it.
i’ve just been relying on the error report page instead

How do you disable it? Would love to do that as well in the meantime

Hey all, the issue should be resolved now! Let me know if there’s any lingering problems.

This issue is fixed, but here’s how to disable it anyway, if you still want that.

game:GetService("RunService").PreRender:Connect(function()
	game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCore("DevConsoleVisible", false)
end)
