Hello there, as the title says, whenever an enemy dies and drop items the game slows down.
Any tips on how to solve this issue?

    Hi @yowave it would help to know a few more details
    - Platform (PC, Mac, Linux)
    - Store (Beamdog, Steam, GoG)
    - Game version e.g.2.2.66.0

    If running on PC, please try the alternate renderer in Options -> Graphics. Requires the game to be closed & restarted.

    Also for PC, please attach a dxdiag report (Windows/R, type dxdiag, click ok, let it run, save all information)

    Thanks

    It seems that Sarevok diary caused the slowdowns when mobs died and dropped items.
    I recall that the problem started in BG:EE original campaign, when i got Sarevok diary from Cythandria.
    The moment i killed her, the game slowed down till i picked up the diary, and since then the game slowed down whenever an enemy dropped items.
    Dropped the diary at the starting caverns, and now all is good.
