From what version? Can you identify when the stuttering starts? This was fixed a while ago.

i upgraded from #0816. 

Can you confirm the build when the stuttering starts - is it #0817, #0818, #0819 etc.?

The fix for the GUI stutter that was added in 4.17.y is still present in these 4.18.y builds:

getting some weird results here. clean installed 0817, 0818, 0819, 0820 and all have the stutter issue. clean installed 0816 and it has the stutter issue (before was sequential upgrades from an already installed version).

i'm working on clean installing 0815 and back but this will take some time. odd how it just popped up out of nowhere considering 4.17.y being present all the way back to the middle of July. will post results again once i'm done testing back.
