What were you doing when the bug occurred? Step by Step detail is helpful. My monitor was running 85hz and my VR headset was running 90hz, I noticed I had very consistent stuttering even though GPU usage was low. On a whim, I switched to a different monitor that is 120hz, and the problem went away. I think this is due to the Windows desktop being vsynced, and the game engine is locking to the desktop's refresh rate, since it is being mirrored there in 2D

Yeah, not a lot to add here, it just seems that the frame pacing is locking for the lowest common denominator, so if the monitor is a lower refresh, you get stutter on the headset.
