VFR Map causes pause

I took off from NFFN in Fiji and as soon as I opened the VFR Map the sim paused for 1 to 2 minutes (which is a long time). The sim came back at the end of the pause but paused again during the flight for no obvious reason. I tested this in both VR and Monitor flights. Both behaved similarly.

Anyone else noticed this?

It’s possible it was just scenery loading in, and the VFR map being called up was just a coincidence.

The first time, in VR it occurred about 10mins into the flight. When flying on the monitor, I took off, flew downwind and called up the VFR Map. It instantly paused for about 2 mins. I’ve NEVER seen this type of pause in preveious iterations of the product.

My specs:
I9 10900k, 64gig RAM, RTX3090, 2tb M.2, 30mbs connection.

It happened again about a mile from the airport on approach to land. See the shot I took that clearly shows nothing is under stress and the GPU is doing “nothing”. The next shot shows the GPU picking up once the sim continued. The pause was almost 3 minutes.

Tried a flight from a different location and had no issues. I’m guessing there is an issue with the scenery around Fiji.
