This is an issue with your ability to get data from Twitch fast enough to watch your stream. Don't use a custom buffer size a lower your bitrate. 3500 Kbps is the maximum Twitch supports and many viewers have trouble maintaining those speeds.

Yes, I read your post. It's not really OBS's fault, you simply can't get the data from Twitch fast enough. If your viewers say it's fine then don't worry about it.
