Bad graphic performance after sleep

After updating to High Sierra im getting bad graphics performance at several Applications (Counterstrike, Davinci Resolve) after waking up from sleep mode. It seems the GPU is throttling to 20-30% of its normal performance. After restarting the machine the performance is back to normal.


My machine is an MacBook Pro 2016 (512,2GB Radeon 455) with newest High Sierra Update 13.1

MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2016), macOS High Sierra (10.13.1), 455 2GB Radeon

I'm having the same problem, the problem did not occur on Sierra. I have been running every beta as soon as it comes out, but the issue is present in every update. Occasionally (especially after waking it in the morning) the Radeon GPU performance becomes unusable, requiring a restart. I have brought the machine to the Apple store, where they have run diagnostics and could see nothing wrong with the hardware. Their only suggestion was to factory reset the machine, but the problem still persists.


I have the MacBook Pro 2016 15-inch (256GB, Radeon 450). Currently on 10.13.2 beta (17C60c).
