Low FPS from start of match, but fixed by disconnecting and rejoining

[aeodyn0]

When starting a match I'm getting ~140fps, which goes up to ~190fps after disconnecting and rejoining the match. Over the course of a match neither of these rough performance levels change to the other otherwise, and the performance increase persists over restarting the client. This happens on both Linux and Windows, and with both Vulkan and DX11/DXVK.

System specs:
CPU: 7700X
GPU: 6650XT
RAM: 32GB DDR5 @ 6400 MT/s
