Serious frame drops when recording in OBS with any Game Bar Widget pinned as Overlay...

Problem is as follows:

I record my game at a smooth 30 FPS (as set in OBS). I turn on Crosshair X Extension Widget in Game Bar and pin it with Game Bar being in Click Click-Through Mode and the recorded FPS take a very serious hit (the game still runs smoothly). I unpin the Widget and the recorded FPS return to a steady 30.

Yes, OBS is not running as administrator, however I exchanged my Task Manager with Process Hacker to permanently grant OBS high priority, so that's not it.

Is it any stupid mistake on my end or what seems to be the problem?

Log file is attached.

Apparently the Bot in the Discord channel didn't like my settings and thusly I was not being taken quite serious, so I went ahead and changed all the settings around and got 2 brand new Logs

Log 1: Almost 100% smooth at 30fps, as it should be -- https://obsproject.com/logs/auFbeidHySrBe0rg
Log 2: 45% render lag only from adding a Crosshair X Overlay -- https://obsproject.com/logs/eH-qha_CrW8LL3nq

I got that the problems stem from the GPU, as that is maxed out at a 100%, HOWEVER my RX 580 is also maxed out without the itsy bitsy overlay.

So... maybe the devs could take a look at this?
