A little over a month ago, I upgraded from version 1.21.6 to 1.22.7. Before that, aside from a few stutters when loading terrain, the game ran fine, even with YouTube tabs playing in the background. But since the update, my game occasionally reaches CPU usage spikes of 100%, causing even background video playback to freeze (it freezes even if I only have the game open). Sometimes it happens once every half hour, or several times in a row. I tried lowering the graphics settings, but that doesn't seem to be the problem. I think it might be the mods, but I only have three, and I never had any problems with them before: Draconis, BetterRuins, and Prospect Together, all updated to their latest versions.
I'd like to know if anyone else has experienced this or if you have any recommendations.
