Poor Performance in VR Editor

I’ve been scavenging the web for an answer to my question. I feel like i missed something obvious.

I wanted to try Unreal VR editor for one of my projects and its just incredibly laggy on my end. I also tried loading up a default project with the unreal chairs and table and it did the same thing. I’m getting like 5 FPS.

Headset : HTC Vive Pro

PC Specs:
GPU: 1080
CPU: i7-8700k
RAM: 32GB

Any help is appreciated. Many thanks for your time.

There are reports of general performance drops with 4.26, especially when using VR. We are also trying to solve similar issues with low frame rates, but no success. We may have to rebuild our project from scratch with 4.25 (luckily we are not very far allow because of the low fps bottleneck), or wait for a fix (which was supposed to happen with 4.26.2, but that did not give us any improvements.)
