This issue became apparent after updating 4.14.0 to 4.14.1.
Repro steps:
1.Make a new project
2.Make a blueprint class, and add a SceneCaptureComponent2d
3.Make a new RenderTargetTexture and assign it to the component
4.Place the blueprint actor in the level, and hit VR Preview
It instantly drops to 45 fps (reprojecting).

The same setup does not cause this issue in earlier versions of the engine.
EDIT: I also tried packaging a Dev build after reading about HZB occlusion issues when PIE. The same results occur when playing a packaged build.
EDIT: This only happens when using Vive and SteamVR. The Rift does not have the same issue.
