Aspect of the Spider - Extreme framerate drops

As title says, whenever the debuff from Aspect of the Spider applies, I get terrible framerate drops. In the attached screenshot I go from a stable 144fps to 40-50.

Worth noting: It is likely not due to the visual effect, as disabling Aspect of the Spider immediately fixes the framerate, even though enemies still have webs on them.

I am using Fenumus' Shroud if that is relevant

Pls fix GGG, this feels terrible right now.

EDIT: Specs are GTX 1070, i7-7700.
Also, the lag seems instance-wide. I invited a friend to party and he started lagging when I used the aspect. I could control his FPS-graph by toggling aspect.

Bump, exact same issue here

There's definitely something off. I've noticed the game felt a lot more stuttery since I've started using aspect today, I've unchecked vsync, and similar to op, with aspect on, framerate drops drastically, from pretty steady 150-200+ to 60 dipping from time to time. You'd think 60 fps would be still decent, but it doesn't feel like 60 fps. Op mentioned fenumus' shroud, but I'm not using it.

My specs are Windows 10, Ryzen 5 2600 and Gtx 1660, others probably should post theirs as well. Anyway this is such a shame, because so far the game worked very smooth this league, framerate wise. Guess I'll need to drop aspect until this is fixed.

Here's a video turning the Aura on and off. Can clearly see the dips.

Same issue. Though I didn't have this issue with the Aura until a few small patches ago. 3.9 league start and mapping was fine with it initially. But after the 2nd or 3rd patch my FPS tanked whenever I fought a pack.

I was having performance issues with/without the aura until last patch(f). Now I can play fine as long as I don't use the Aura.

Since this skill isn't very common or well used we might be out of luck for a while.
Same problem here! FPS drop from a stable 120+ do below 50. Pretty unlucky considering that i dont really wanna drop the skill.

My specs: Intel core i7 4779k Nvidia GTX 1060 16GB RAM
Same here, ryzen 3700x + 5700 xt and the fps dips down to even 30's in large packs because of the aura :/ Without it the game runs smoothly.
Same issue here(Ryzen 2700x, gtx 1070). +90 fps without aspect of the spider aura, it dips down below 30 fps around large packs. Please fix.
Same thing is happening for me. I get down to 50 fps on a small pack of enemies, it's gonna be impossible to play with the buff active.
exact same here
