Spontaneous 0 FPS

[vsfa]

SUMMARY:

In the middle of the match, I would randomly drop to 0-5 FPS. I can't figure out what exactly was triggering it, I was thinking it was some kind of effect going whacky and causing issues but I couldn't find a correlation. The only thing different I did to my PC recently was install Python, but I doubt that was the case. During this I alt-tabbed to check resource monitor to see if my disk was choking, it was not. CPU seemed fine, GPU seemed fine. I turned off Discord stream to see if it helped, but it honestly didn't. This issue has not happened before. Could be a problem with NVIDIA overlay w/ Discord? This could be nothing but I'm going to post it regardless and if I encounter it again.

I could not find any error message in Event Viewer regarding any app hang etc. Sadly net_graph 1 doesn't exist in this game, (for some reason?) so I couldn't figure out what was chugging the game

Probably one of the better formatted bug reports I've seen on this forum, too.

Also @Valve pls fix (net_graph 1)
