Weather effects cause keyboard lag

Whenever there are weather effects like rain or snow, my keystrokes are processed at a rate of maybe one per second. To make matters worse, if I lean on a key trying to get some response, the keystrokes queue up at a fast rate, so I may have to wait a couple minutes for that queue to clear (at the painfully slow rate) before I can press a key to respond to, for example, an NPC that's been beating on me for the last two minutes. Mouse actions are immediate and responsive, so if 100 W keystrokes are queued up, I sometimes have to run in circles to stay near the object I want to act on until the queue clears.

I've tried turning down graphics quality options without much success.

I've died many times due to this, and lost a powerboat and other goodies. I have basically decided the game is unplayable for me outdoors during any weather event.

This is running on Linux, through Steam using Proton 10.0-4 for compatibility. The game would not run at all without Proton.

I found a way to mitigate this. I had set the OS Accessibility setting "Repeat Keys" to off much earlier, and it didn't seem to impact the issue. Today I noticed that in another program I could lean on the backspace key and the repeat kicked in. It shouldn't have with that setting off, so I turned it on and off again an checked game behavior. With snow falling, keystroke processing was still slow (light snow, so only down to half a second per keystroke), but the keyboard queuing effect wasn't there, so it was just laggy, stuttering movement -- not ideal, but still quite playable. It would be good if the game didn't get so slow on processing keystrokes during weather events, but at least there is a workaround for affected Linux users.
