Path Tracer extremely slow since Update 2023

I’m using Community Edition 2023.2.3 now and since 2023.1.2 the Path Tracer is completely useless.
In version 2022.2.3 all works perfect, if i use path tracer with my rtx 3090 and 256 samples per pixel and 10 bounces it takes 5 sec. to render the image. In the new versions from 2023.1.2 it’s almost unpossible to render the same scene under a couple of minutes…
what went wrong with the new updates? why is the path tracer so slow now?
it’s useless to use twinmotion if i have the same render times in fstorm render or vray…
can someone help me and explain what the problem with the new versions is?

Any news on this? I do have the same problem… It’s really annoying!

no, unfortunatly not…epic is not responding… but i can’t imagine that we are the only ones who have this problem… you can’t really work with this slow path tracer because it would take ages to finish a picture…
