**EDIT: Solved! The “suspend VST3 plugins while not used” was accidentally unticked

Did you check settings? No change in ASIOguard etc…?

3

Absolutely! I even took photos to compare and to make sure I did not miss anything. Settings are exactly the same!

4

I have to compare with a few more projects but the two projects I compared today use exactly the same CPU.

5

I’m not having that problem here. In fact, it’s opposite. I’m finding better performance with a current project at 96k with mainly VST3 plugins

6

Interesting…My project session has a huge number of VEPro instances, Virtual instruments, stems, reverbs, etc. I also tried a simpler audio tracks-only project and yet, the CPU load was the same…More testing is necessary…

Sorry, I just discovered that the “suspend VST3 plugins while not used” option was accidentally unticked. Turned it back on and it is normal now.

8

I’m glad it’s sorted!

9

There is something in the release notes about this being unticked on purpose by default

Oh…This makes sense, I didn’t remember un-ticking it. Do you know what is the reason they did this?
