Hey, we were able to narrow it down. Here is a breakdown of what we found.

  1. Windows 11 24h2 was indeed a part of the problem. Microsoft released an update a few days ago: KB5058499 (OS Build 26100.4202). “[Graphics kernel] Fixed: An issue where some game titles become unresponsive after upgrading to 24H2.”
  2. Nvidia improved some driver issues, a hotfix shouldbe released soon.
  3. We found that disabling “Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling” helps.
  4. We were able to mitigate the problem by setting process affinity on the game startup so that the Core0 is reserved for background tasks. We introduced `FWindowsPlatformProcess::SetProcessAffinityMask`

I hope it helps others!
