In Empire At War: Gold Pack --> Forces Of Corruption --> Awakening Of The Rebellion mod, there is extremely long load times and consistently bad stuttering when during heavy firefights that I've replicated on both me and my partner's PCs that isn't present on Windows. It happens at any graphic settings. It can make the experience feel bad to unplayable.
Reproduction
Prerequisite: Subscribe to "Awakening of The Rebellion" on Steam Workshop.
Launch Star Wars Empire At War: Gold Pack ---> Choose Forces of Corruption ---> Main Menu ---> Settings ---> Mods ---> Choose "Awakening Of Rebellion". You will notice absurdly long loading times compared to Windows, combined with initial stuttering in the main menu. In space or land firefights there is more stuttering, especially heavy firefights that isn't present on Windows that can make it unplayable.
