[0.16.3] 0.5 FPS after loading game

Game works just fine until attempt to save and then load saved game. FPS drops and opening GUI takes minutes
I have two monitors and when game is not in focus it can unfreeze but freezes back immediately as I click on game window.
Didn't have this problem with 0.16.2
Ubuntu 16.04 x64

Hi, does this happen always when you reload the game?
I found bug with starting game with Video Memory Usage set to something other than All, and Low VRAM Mode enabled, then disabling Low VRAM Mode or setting Video Memory Usage to All would cause this extremely low FPS before the game was restarted.

I fixed my issue by setting sprite quality=normal
Just set sprite quality=high, restarted game, loaded my save and got factorio crashed

On 0.16.4 performance is much better, I get slowdowns to 15-20 fps only when moving.

My game runs at 60FPS consistently, except for a span of about 10 seconds immediately after a save. Then I get a reported 45 fps which is really a headache-inducing stutter between 30 and 60.
This is on a brand new map with default settings.
My specs & settings:
CPU: i7-6700K 4GHz
RAM: 16 GB DDR4 3000
GPU: GTX 970 "4GB" (but really 3.5 with a slow 0.5 on top; I got my $30 from the lawsuit)
Full screen
Wait for vsync
Sprite res high
Lights resolution 1.0
Render threads 8
Atlas size largest
video memory usage High (turned down from all to try to fix this but didn't help)
all other defaults

Cogwheel try turning off wait for vsync.
Also please don't hi-jack an existing topic.

Umm ... ok... it seemed like the same problem to me. i thought the devs might want more information on a bug report
