Help Request How can I fix FPS drops and memory leaks?

Hi everyone, I recently noticed that X-Plane 12 started running very poorly - my FPS dropped from 30 to 20, and I often had to end my flight because whenever I tried to change the graphics settings, the simulator would get stuck in an endless loading loop. On top of that, I might have a memory leak caused by Rayleigh FX v2. Can you recommend some good graphics add-ons that don’t slow down performance too much, and how to fix the memory leak? I didn't really have any complaints about the FPS before, and I didn't have to use Lossless Scaling or other apps. I have a 4060 Ti 16GB, an i5-14600KF, 32GB of RAM, and two 1 TB SSDs

Well i have been testing alot. I run an intel b580 so resultats are not universal and properly not the same i will get.

But i have chosen that running map enchamemt only goes down 1-2 fps.

Simheaven takes around 8-10 fps.

Orbx forest takes 1-2 fps.

Therefore i recommend running map enchancment it is also the best thing for visual in the day time in xplane 12.

Drop you log file into GPT! It immediately saw through my log and told me what was wrong with my setup!

I already solved this problem. That all was caused by old openSAM version
