If I highlight the Sphere so that performance is impacted, then close Inspector, performance doesn't optimize at that point (well, it actually goes up to 7.5~ish vs. the previous 6-ish fps. FPS only returns to the expected result (30+fps) when I re-open Patch Inspector (or Parameter view, same results from both).
