New Engine Patches uses twice as much CPU/GPU yet causes insane micro stutter and lag

What we need is a NEW post from them, telling us what is going on with this current patch. Plenty of us didn't have such issues until the patch dropped, so we are justifiably upset about this and want to know if anything will be done about it.

GGG please rollback previous game engine in 2.21 patch !!

any news from GGG on this issue?

Game crashed my PC now.
Not only is it not able to run, it instantly make my PC go into BSOD.

hoho nope looks like they doing random patches hoping something sticks.

Still having this weird issue with multithreading: when it's enabled game is stuttering like hell, when it's disabled the game is smooth, but it's actually on - all the cores are being used and the number of threads stays the same. Performance is as bad as it was in the previous league, crucible was much better in that regard.

Fixed the stutters and lags finally.

Don't know if it's allowed to post YT links so before my post gets deleted try this:

search for "How to fix Path of Exile Shader Cache Lag Spikes" on YT and then choose the first video made by "Kasey".

Download the ImDisk Toolkit and follow his steps.

Please remember to adjust the file paths and the windows user to your own settings.

It worked for me the first time I tried it. Finally I can go to the lab without dying miserably.

Think we'll see any fixes for these so-called engine changes? Cause if not, they should announce that the game takes vastly more requirements, so people can simply stop waiting around and hoping to be able to play this game anymore.
