Framerate drop and performance hit after doing a portal scan (2.123.1)

I'm noticing an issue where the framerate drops considerably and the game starts to respond in a sluggish manner after I complete a single portal scan. It seems to correct itself if I toggle the Native Refresh Rate setting or restart the scanner. This began with the latest update which introduced Lightship AR scanning and the new visual effects.

Can confirm on 2.123.2 as well, using Oneplus 8 Pro on Android 13.
Disabling and instantly reenableing the "Unlock Frame Rate" option fixes the FPS until the next scan.
I thought it was just a thing that was happening me, for no explicable reason.
I do notice that the file size drops after the initial scan when viewed in the settings screen. And I presumed it was just the post scan ML compression.
Sounds like a memory overflow issue or something ? Game bugs out after too much memory allocated or something
Issue still exists with 2.232.1 :(
It seems to actually be flipping the flag each time, with FPS locked check starting a scan unlocks the FPS
Issue still exists in 2.133.1, it's the main reason I am not scanning at the moment :(
I might as well ask before making a new topic but anyone notice a frame drop from overclocking? It might not happen with calibrated overclock hacks but it's sometimes definite on uncalibrated overclock hacks. Might need to use a fps overlay to test out.
Do you mean during or after Overclocking? I'll try it out tomorrow to see if I can get it to reproduce.
It seems to be during. After overclocking is ok because the camera is no longer active.
Issue is still present in 2.133.1.
I haven't had any permanent performance issues from overclocking, only scanning.
Still an issue with 2.134.1.
I'm begging on my hands and knees please fix this Niantic 🙇
Still an issue on 2.135.1
Issue is still present in 2.136.1.
