Stuttering Issue with Resident Evil 4 in Bazzite (and not Windows)
Hi! This is a very specific issue, but it was odd enough I decided to make a post. I have been trying to run Resident Evil 4 on my 7900 XTX. The prior RE games ran no problem, so I didn't imagine this game would be any different.
The game runs relatively well, but it has this constant stuttering where (according to Mangohud) the FPS would barely stay at 60, usually dipping to the 50s or 40s. I tweaked with every single setting without any luck. I tried changing the Proton version, including experimental and glorious eggroll. Nothing seemed to work.
I then decided to boot into Windows on my device to see if it may run any better there--sure enough, it ran beautifully. I'm not sure if the issue is Linux or Bazzite related or what, but I am curious if anyone has any insight as to what could be the cause.
Happy to share specs/more info if it would be helpful to narrow down what the issue could be.

As an aside, this Reddit thread mentions the issue as well (which is what prompted me to ask as I have the same problem): https://reddit.com/r/Bazzite/comments/1isdgro/bad_performance_in_resident_evil_4_remake/
