Hi @Adam Brennecke, are you still looking into the (micro-)stuttering?

I have no other idea whether this is of any use to you, but I just wanted to point out that whenever I play Pathfinder: Kingmaker, I experience the same baffling drops, and at the same intervals, more or less: every 45-60 seconds. Tyranny, however, is unaffected. I'm on an i7-7700K/GTX 1070 8gb/SSD.

I've yet to test it for more than a few minutes at a time, but it seems to have solved the issue almost completely for me.

Yeah, it's a well known (in certain circles) tweak, basically useful for every game. My advice is to not setting shedule every 5 minutes, because when you playing, game also stores cache in your RAM (for fast map loading, for example), and this data will also be cleaned every 5 mins, forcing your game to upload data from hard drive once again and, possibly, cause another stuttering, during the process.

Run Cache Cleaner once, before starting the game. It should be enough.

Is that link/download to empty Standby List safe?  

It seems to be far worse in windows 1903.  Instead of dropping frames it literally stops for a couple seconds.   This is terrible and should be fixed.  I don't know how they plan on porting to consoles with this kind of performance.

I have been getting a regular interval stutter now 😕  POE 1 had micro stutter, but it is way worse for me here and sometimes I will get that interval stutter.  I think I am done.  I tried everything on the forums and reddit, posted my saved games here to no avail.  Its a shame because I think the content of Deadfire is awesome.
