Franchise park suddenly super low FPS - anyone else?

This was before the 1.0.3 patch, but after yesterday's Franchise server maintenance (though I'm not sure why that would've caused a problem!).

I opened my Franchise zoo yesterday and it was running like molasses! 10 FPS unpaused, around 20 paused. It's not a huge park - 1740 guests and 66 animals total. No crazy 4k blueprints or anything either. And it's not my computer - I can open a Career mode park with over 2000 guests and 60+ animals and it runs just fine! I created a new Franchise park with nothing in it, and it runs at 60 FPS.

Does anyone else have a Franchise park that suddenly dropped to a super low framerate? Any advice?

I've already reported this on the Issue Tracker here: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/10416 If others are having the same problem, you can add to that report if you'd like.
 
Just popped into my Franchise zoo this morning for the first time in a few days and WOW, yeah, major FPS drop! I've got about 2000-odd guests and probably around 50 animals? No crazy buildings either.
 
I'm almost relieved that it's not just me, I haven't seen anyone else talking about this issue. Hopefully they can get it resolved!
 
I had that issue at first after the patch, because out of the blue about 2500 new visitors entered the zoo all at once when I loaded it...no joke. The congestion at the front gate and immediate surrounding was freaking ridiculous and if I got even remotely close to that area my fps slowed to a crawl.

I canceled all marketing that was in effect and it resolved itself over time as all the people either left or spread out into the rest of the zoo.

Oh, I hoped that would be the answer, that'd be such an easy fix! Alas, it's not what's going on in my park. :( This started yesterday, before the patch, and I don't see any special activity at the front of the park. I tried cancelling my marketing and letting the number of people drop down a bit to be sure, but the frame rate still never went above 11 FPS. :( Thank you for the suggestion, though!
 
I updated my graphics card drivers to the most recent, hoping that would make a difference, but it didn't. I'm really hoping this issue doesn't go ignored just because it's apparently rare. :( I was really enjoying that franchise park, sunk dozens of hours into it... and now can't play in it at all.
 
I only had this problem when I Downloaded and used a Blueprint. Who ever made the blue print decided to add like 40 million grid building pieces.
 
I wish I could pinpoint a simple issue like that. I don't have any crazy builds or downloaded blueprints.
I figured it out when I was planning the camera around and when I got over top of the scenery blueprints the fps dropped real good. So I figured it was the blueprint. Removed it and bingo. Fixed.
