TF2 sudden FPS stuttering after 15-20 minutes in-game.
I'm not sure what is causing this, but running the native build of TF2 directly through Steam, the only unusual things being using gamemode and mastercomfig (https://comfig.app, a common performance config for TF2), and the game runs seemingly perfectly up until about 15-20 minutes of gameplay where I seem to have very sudden and fleeting FPS drops, and as far as I can tell it is coinciding with whenever i give any mouse input. For prosperity the mouse is a Logitech G402. My system is in performance mode, is plugged into mains power (important seeing as it's a laptop), and doesn't have this issue with any other game from what I can see.
My mouse is still at 125Hz (I know it's a gaming mouse but generally I haven't seen high polling rates have any significant benefit for me, so I thought it was best to free up my CPU from being bombarded by interrupts).

Update: this was caused by a broken ollama installation pinning my CPU.
hi, out of curiosity, what was broken in your ollama install?
I don't know, but the ollama install was part there and part not, it was constantly attempting to boot up a podman container for it, crashing, and then immediately trying to relaunch it
i made a ujust script for bluefin you can use to remove ollama a few weeks ago, did you install ollama using the ujust commands originally?
i did but the issue seems to be rectified now
