When not in Studio Mode (i.e. rendering a single preview), I'm seeing a time-to-render-frame of about 2.5ms, and easily maintaining 60fps with 0% frames-missed-due-to-rendering-lag. However, as soon as I tap Studio Mode, this drops aaaaaaallll the way down to ~45ms (and almost 20× increase!), and I average about 20fps at best, with ~30% frames-missed-due-to-rendering-lag.
The render is not complex — it's a single Display Capture, with no transform applied, capturing a display that is exactly the resolution of the encoding output.
I saw this same problem on a previous Mac; but I'd assumed it was due to it being an older Mac, and didn't really expect better. However, having just purchased a Very Expensive New Mac, I definitely expected to be able to go back to using Studio Mode! )=
I'm currently experimenting with these settings:
