Bad performance with Ray Tracing and new world generation

In the recent 1.18 betas, after a short period of flying around performance starts to dip significantly, with chunk culling starting to break and framerates going extremely low compared to the averages found in 1.17.40 with experimental generation. My average frames per second in 1.17.40 while experimental generation is on at the exact same settings is normally 60-70 frames per second, while the latest 1.18 betas have brought that far down to around 20-30 frames per second.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Create and enter any infinite world with Ray Tracing on (preferably in creative)

  2. Fly around for a short period of time and observe

Observed Results:

Performance with Ray Tracing on starts to drop significantly, and chunks start to cull incorrectly. This results in holes throughout the world and an overall terrible experience playing the game.

Expected Results:

Performance with Ray Tracing on at the exact same settings as used in the previous versions of the game should be retained, and chunk culling and loading should work properly.

Here is a short video I have captured of this occurring:

Experienced the same thing, also have a Geforce RTX 2060. It happens faster with higher render distances, set by using the options.txt file. In task manager I watched the dedicated VRAM on the GPU fill up to about 4.5 GB before beginning to experience the issue. Despite only 25% GPU usage.
