Frame Rate Stutter on Xbox Series S Following 1.21.80 Update

Following the 1.21.80 update the games frame rate stutters for a few seconds whenever a sign is placed.

Steps to repeat - This only happened following the 1.21.80 update, and in the instance above. Wherever a sign (in my test an oak sign) was placed, there was noticable stutter for a few seconds.

Expected Result - Before the patch there was no stutter when placing signs.

Actual result - Since the patch (May 7, 2025) there is noticeable stutter whenever placing signs.

Note: This may also happen whenever other blocks or items are placed in the world.

Edit: this frame stutter also seems to occur when Xbox notifications are received, such as when a friend comes online.

Another Edit: a similar stutter, also for a few seconds also seems to happen when the game is left unpaused and idle for at least an hour (when the game display on the Xbox dims).

Yet Another Edit: same stutter also occurs, also for a few seconds after editing an unsigned book.

Not gonna lie, 100% true. For me it was every few seconds, idk what’s going on

For me and all of my friends, it's not just a noticeable stutter it makes the game completely unplayable for around the exact same time frame of 5 seconds, Also things like the Xbox party overlay count towards the lagging, additionally it's worth while noting this only happens with vibrant visuals
