low FPS on Minecraft bedrock edetion

Question

Hello,

I am experiencing severe performance issues in Minecraft Bedrock Edition on PC, specifically related to the UI and world loading/exiting.

The problems are:

1. Heavy UI lag and massive frame drops ("red frames" / stuttering) whenever I open the main menu, pause menu, or try to join/leave a world.
2. The game constantly cuts my FPS exactly in half (e.g., locking at 30 or 72 FPS), even though my hardware is more than capable of running the game at maximum settings.

This seems to be a known issue with the RenderDragon engine, UWP frame pacing, and improper V-Sync handling in full-screen/borderless mode.

Please look into fixing this optimization bug in the upcoming updates. Thank you!
