[Performance] Infernus Flame Dash results in massive performance hit

Flame Dash's floor burning affect results in a massive drop in FPS - on my machine from 50fps to 30fps. FPS is still low when dash is over but the floor is still burning.

Other abilities which leave stuff on the floor such as Viscous's splatter or Grey Talon's Immobilizing Trap do not result in nearly as large an FPS drop (50fps -> 45fps).

Config:
I am on a laptop with an i5 12500H using integrated Iris Xe graphics, on charge and set to Performance power profile.
Graphics settings: Everything lowest, 1440x900, 90Hz refresh rate, full resolution scale.

Repro steps:
1. Enable Steam overlay FPS counter and launch game
2. Load into Hero Sandbox as Infernus and note FPS.
3. Use Flame Dash, then look at the burning floor and note FPS significantly lower.
4. Wait for floor to stop burning, and see FPS returns to normal.
