Lag with 3 accounts after hearthing

[pak]

I just added a 3rd account and the game runs real smooth except after hearthing/zoning. I get real bad unplayable FPS drop to about 5. The only remedy so far is to log out of one account and the game run instantly smooth. I log back in and fine again with 3 till I zone again.


Any ideas?

6700k
32gb ram
2080ti
4k reso with max settings
I'd say typical addons, nothing crazy.

Really strange that it doesnt go away or clear up until you relog. if you havent yet, try with all addons disabled and see if it reoccurs. Your pc specs arent the problem.

What happens if you /reload ?

So I think I've figure it out. It only happens when I have 3 or more loading screens at the same time. When I do this, it does take a lot longer to load. So what I have to do is hearth with 1 character, let that one completely load, then I can hearth with the other 2.

It's almost like that amount of loading at one time bottle necks and can't catch up. I do have an SSD. At the time it was one of the better ones, but it has been almost 5 years. Samsung something 850 evo if I remember right.

try typing this into all characters chat then /reload and then hearth normally.
/console worldPreloadNonCritical 0

There's something else going on though, you should be able to hearth 10 characters at once on that system easily.

His cpu has 4 cores / 8 threads and he plays with 4k on max settings.

Try DX11 legacy instead of DX12, eats much less VRAM.

So you're saying I've reached the limits of my CPU?

This seemed to help a lot
