Widget Plugin Gui halving my fps

First noticed this when my frames absolutely dropped even though I am on a decent computer. Decided to play around and close a few windows and noticed that when I closed my Clock plugin my frames doubled. I tried this with another plugin which uses the Dock Widget Gui and the same thing happened. (Asset manager, Toolbox, Terrain Editor, tag editor, Call Stack, Breakpoints, watch, Activity History, Texture generator, all significantly lower my fps)

Thanks for the report! Could you include a microprofiler dump, and your system information?

Which version Windows are you on?

If you’re using Windows 11 24H2, could you check if this works for you?

I have this off and still experience a 60 - 100 fps drop when certain plugin widget ui’s are docked

(while testing one of them caused studio to crash. Crash report: https://devforum.roblox.com/t/moving-widget-ui-crashed-studio/3524287)

Interesting. Do you know if you have GSync enabled? The symptoms sound similar to this other thread

I can’t see if I have that as I am using an MSI laptop without a Mux switch which causes the display setting to be hidden in nvidia control panel. I presume I don’t have it enabled
