Huge FPS Drop when playing a column with frame generator plugin

Hi,

My computer is plenty powerful, but for some reason, whenever I call a 3-layer column that has a Background video(dxv3) and 2 imags(that have frame generator and drop shadow effects loaded), my fps instantly drops to low 10s and the software hangs for about a quarter of a second and then it picks right back up to the 30fps that's set to the composition. I'm on the latest resolume version(7.23.2) and outputing to 2 monitors.
My setup is 1 GUI monitor, 1 2048x640 led panel and 1 1080p TV. When I blackout the effects, I don't get this frame drop. I tried the same composition on a mac studio M1 max and it's smooth with all the effects loaded.

My specs:
Intel core i7 12700
AMD RX 7900xt 20gb VRAM
64gb RAM DDR5 4800MHz
SSD NVME 4.0 4tb
1 NZXT Capture usb capture and 1 Magewell USB capture
Windows 11 pro latest update

All I am running on this computer is resolume and no unnecessary background process besides hwinfo and I am getting less than 10% usage on either my GPU and CPU. The temps are also low 50s Celsius.

What kind of images are these?

Big resolution jpeg, or png can be heavy to decode.
Converting those to DXV could help.

The BG is a DXV3 loop and the 2 pips are capture cards. I created another column without any video, only the capture cards and I get exctly the same issue. This issue only goes away when I deactivate the plugins. This same compostion doesn't give me the same issue on a mac.
