Seems like PoE stopped unloading textures from video memory

It started like 3-ish days ago, I've unlocked fps for the vid. Playing with an original poe launcher. For some reason my FPS started dropping down during the content being played heavily. If I re-enter location, it jumps back to normal, and starts dropping off again.

P.S. Graphic settings are in first seconds of the video.
P.S.S. I tried all combination of renderers + texture sizes, and all other options. Dynamic culling/resolution do not work at all for some reason as well. I tried re-installing video drivers, and OS as an act of despair. Nothing worked.
Aside of severe multithreading issues (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3408520) - I've been experiencing the same problem for a couple of days now. At the start of a map it's smooth sailing on 90-100 fps. Towards the end of the map it tends to be something like 20-30 fps. Exiting and re-entering the map solves this problem and I'm instantly back to 90-100 fps.

More P.S
I did not have bars on during monitoring, since I did not ever need this before, apparently it show that VRAM is stable, but CPU latency grows during playing pretty fast, from 5-6MS to 30ish. I tried disabling C-states ( https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/t1d01u/performance_guide_secrets_of_stuttering_how_i/) and it had no effect, sadly.

I'm curious, do you still experience this issue if you remove all impale chance from your character?

Actually, they are the problem, god damn it. I believe they are being calculated on dead monsters all the time, and it resets when I re-enter instance.
oh wow, you're right. unequipping my spell impale gloves solved the problem for me - thanks!
Bump, having the same problem. So are we locked out of playing impale builds because of it staying forever on dead monsters? Not sure how not many people haven't report it yet...

The funny part, that Call of Steel got removed from the game, so there is no reason for it tot exist afaik, I still just re-enter instance in a middle of map tho, not the best way of doing things, still better then losing a character.
