My Wit's End

I love this game but the stuttering in VR (rift) has me at my wit's end. I'm not after suggestions on how to fix it as Ive already tried everything over the past 12mths. All that's left is to plead with the Devs to allocate some time to have another look at it. Ive worked in IT for 20 years in development/infrastructure/networking and I cant resolve this issue using any means that are under my control. It seems to be an ED specific issue. The loading screen for ED says it all. How an i7, 8 core processor with 16GB ram, SSD and a GTX1080 cannot rotate a simple 3d object while loading in the game without stuttering does my head in. The stuttering is clearly more prominent in open play. Everyone seems to agree it increases when dropping into stations (as the assets load in I'm assuming). Id much rather stay in cruise mode for longer while the data loads than drop out sooner and lose all immersion while this thing stutters its way through loading in the scene. Even if its a configurable option we can set. Id happily buy 64GB of ram if there was an option to load all ED assets into memory before the game even starts! When you're out exploring 1000s of light years from the bubble in single player mode the lack of stutter seduces your brain and creates great immersion. If there's anything that can be done to reduce stutter that would be much appreciated!
