Symptoms

When doing the Bishop boss fight on top of the Pillar Mountains, every time he does one of his special attack moves, the game's framerate goes essentially down to 0, freezing the screen until it unstucks seconds later for a short while, just to get stuck again, until it skipped past enough of the animations, seconds later - until the next attack happens. This essentially makes the entire fight unplayable.

Only reference I could find was this from 2021, but they didn't seem to have filed a report: https://secretsofgrindea.com/forum/index.php?threads/crash-extreme-lag-in-the-bishop-fight-with-proton.9658/

I also noticed the game taking about 2 full minutes to even load up. I can't recall if that was an issue on Windows already, but given my hardware I would expect it to load faster. Not sure if that is potentially related to the game struggling loading the effects for the battle, but I thought I'd at least mention it.

Reproduction

Enter the fight, wait for Bishop to use his special attacks.
