Darktide Running extremely poorly after newest update and barely using CPU

Issue Description (Required):

Darktide running extremely poorly after last update. It seems to be because Darktide barely uses my CPU and GPU. While in the mourning star will have both cpu and gpu utilization at around 50% but in game it runs around 20-30% after latest patch. This leads to my game running anywhere from 20fps to 40fps when previously it was running around 60-80

Attempted Solutions (Optional):

I have tried changing max worker threads to match my physical core count -2, I have tried matching my thread count -2 as well (In order to do this I had to add “max_worker_threads” as a setting to the config file due to not being able to change launcher settings on linux). I have tried changing all sorts of in-game settings, I have also tried optimising my hardware settings via things like overclocking

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

[PC] PC Specifications (Optional):

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600g
RAM: 16gb 3600 mhz
