Proton logs

1. Frame-rate drops: steam-1286350.log
2. Early freeze: steam-1286350.log

Symptoms

1. Severe frame-rate drops when certain graphical effects happen (weapon muzzle flashes). It doesn't always do this, but once it starts happening it won't stop until I restart Steam, restarting the application won't fix it. It happens on both Xorg and XWayland.
2. Intro video doesn't play correctly and the game will freeze if not skipped.

Reproduction

1. Hard to reproduce because it's random. It can happen right away, some random time into a session or not at all.
2. Simply starting the game.

Start with the two linked Proton logs and the reported reproduction steps for BPM: BULLETS PER MINUTE on Proton 6.3-8. Compare the frame-rate-drop and intro-video freeze symptoms against the system information and determine whether both can be reproduced; done means identifying a consistent cause or a confirmed compatibility fix.
