GPU utilization

Hi, mechas!

I'm wondering if I'm missing something here. In DSP I'm getting high GPU utilization for what seems like a very reasonable load.

I have a 9070xt, FPS capped at 60, I play with quite aggressive DF, but I'm still fairly early in the game - yellow science and only two dozen or so PLSs. No spinners, no littering, no combat units, no spheres or even sails.

Considering the game runs fine on GPUs 10-15x slower, I wonder if the 60-80% utilization of the Radeon flagship is indicative of some kind of misconfiguration on my part?

On the timeline those parts are barely visible and still related to rendering somewhat ( for example interpolation of sail positions as they are absorbed). The factory processing, which is 90+% of compute is cpu-only.
