VeJa - Mutant

This amp still is the best one out there for my heavy metal/trash band sound.
It is the amp that has the best favorable tone / amount of tweaking ratio for me.

Though, it has me bummed out over the CPU usage on my Dwarf
As soon as I try to combine with a few other plugins, I get cuts of the sound due to the CPU maxing out.

No, the other effects aren’t CPU heavy reverbs or a ton of routing options and when I turn the plugin off, I go back to the lower levels of pc usage I’m used to (100%-> 40 à 50%)

I’ve made setups with other amp modellers using both inputs for guitar and vocal, each with their reverbs, deays etc and have it all running smoothly.

So yes, I did enough tests to isolate the Mutant as the cause of the issue.
(The only other plugin to do it this hard that I encountered is the RMPro ‘mastering’ plugin), which is also unusable for me because I can’t add it to my setups.

I as confronted with this issue again yesterday, trying the MOD assistant . One of the things he proposed was a simple 3 plugin setup with the Mutant and a reverb. The reverb was pointed out as probable cause by a users but I disagree.I have less issues with load with that particular reverbthan with the Mutant.

What strikes me is that I seem to be th only one, which would mean either nobody uses it actively or only the large Duo users use it, without cpu issues?
(or I have a specific fault in my cpu?)

Is there something I can do?
if anybody wants to run spcific tests, let me know?
Could the Mutant be optimized?
