[PC] The final boss has terrible performance issues

The stuttering and frame rate drops on the final boss completely ruined it, it runs terribly. In fact the last 15% or so of the game seems to run so much worse than the rest of the game, it's like they ran out of time. The entire fight was a complete mess. Not the best way to end the game that's for sure.

I ran the fight again and it was night and day the second time, it ran so much better, so I'm guessing the final boss wasn't cached properly on the menu.

    No, the second time it was mostly fine, which makes me think it's a caching issue. You would hope the final encounter would have been cached during the pre-compile on the menu, but it doesn't seem to be the case.
