Character composition chokes performance in this game to a pretty extreme degree already. That thread will nuke performance into the floor in crowds long before any geometry overheads do.

Fun trivia, I upgraded from a Ryzen 3800X to a 5800X whilst Bojza was at it's height of popularity, alongside a 3080 my performance in the crowd outside the zone in more than doubled from sub 30 to just over 60 fps. Anywhere else I'm hitting the 100fps cap for my monitor with either cpu.
