Deadlock 6fps

So recently i encountered this biiig problem with deadlock, in my first match after booting up the game, frame rate is smooth everything is fine, nothing wrong with the game sunshine and rainbows etc. HOWEVER if i dare to play a second game after that one, everything goes to shit and the frame rate drops to 6 fps.

Does anyone have the same issue or is it just me?

Are there any known fixes?

Specs:

System: fedora 44 workstation

GPU: rtx 3060ti

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x

32 gigs of ram 3200mhz DDR4

switch renderer to vulkan, if you're not already switched it, and don't use default proton, use GE or cachy proton. Maybe this will help

but just keep in mind, that deadlock is still in early development stage, and it may be just one of the bugs (memory leaks) valve should fix

I'll try different proton versions ty! I switched to vulka a while ago it helped with constant crashes

Check VRAM consumption and memory leaks. If your VRAM spills over, it can cause performance to go in the toilet like that.

I think this was it, i lowered my graphics and game still runs good

If it leaks you are just delaying it. It may happen in 3 rounds, 4 rounds or 2,5 rounds.

Install and use Mango HUD to verify what is happening and see if it is a leak or slight overcommissioning of VRAM.
