I'm experiencing major FPS drops in 26.2 with Vulkan enabled. FPS goes from 120 down to 5 constantly, even without loading new chunks. This issue did not occur before 26.2. Switching to OpenGL improves the drops slightly but overall performance is way worse than in 1.21.11.
Environment
Laptop Intel i5-11400H 16GB RAM RTX 3050
Probably because the Vulkan renderer is still in the testing phase, so it's more prone to crashing and frame drops.But with my 8GB of RAM, it doesn’t run nearly this laggy.
