    Have you tried setting the process priority to high? (Task Manager -> Details -> Right click BG3 -> Det priority to high). This got me a relatively smooth experience.

      I wouldn’t do this anymore if you’re on windows. They defaulted task manager to normal priority now (used to default to high). So if you set any task to high priority and it freezes/locks, you’re going to have no hope of getting task manager open.

      At least if they’re both normal priority, there’s a chance for the OS to give some CPU time to task manager to open.

        Oh really? That seems like a weird move… I’ve at least kept it in the background, on a separate screen, at all times (though I’m not sure how much that would help…) But I’d probably use this anyway to get rid off the worst lag, it seems to be the most consistent way to do it.
