Invisible NPCs (stacked visual cones in stealth) killing frame rates

So, this is an anomaly I've noticed before, but this time I am receiving a significant fps drop while in stealth and I surmise it is because of this (pictured below) usually my computer can handle this....lack of optimization. but my FPS drops to 11-15 as soon as i hit stealth.

I see these stacked visual cones near NPC exit/entry points on nearly every single map. This is an optimization issue and is tanking game performance.

It also affects gameplay more than just by dropping my FPS, if I am in stealth and I enter a map, these invisible NPCs will actually "see" me and make me visible in stealth. They have their own hearing radius and everything in spite of nobody actually being there.
