BR: OpenGL responsiveness vs. Melda plugins

Hello. I have created a tune with 57 tracks +. How the track count growed, the GUI of Waveform started loosing responsiveness. Right now, when I open the edit, the GUI is almost frozen. but not the computer itself. The tune plays, CPU meter shows some 57 % load. But I can't do anything. Open VST, open the track editor, move mixer's sliders... Sometimes it helps, when I minimize Waveform and then maximize it. It gains a focus for a while, but after a short period of time, everyting goes back.¨When I switch the OpenGL rendering off, Waveform behaves normally. BUT: all Melda plugins stop displaying right. Their GUIs are sluggish instead of the Waveform's, no matter which type of rendering I choose in the Melda's setup. Kind of a magic circle.
I'm on the latest Windows 10 (v. 2004), Nvidia Quadro 2000 graphic card (older one, but still quite capable) Dirext X 12.0 and nVidia drivers 377.89 (also not the very latest).
Is there any chance for things to get better, Thanx.

Well, to be clear. Melda is only a part of the problem. The main issue is that Waveform becomes totally unresponsive with a higher trackcount while openGL is turned on.

Actually the playback never stops. Only the GUI doesn't refresh and the whole Waveform is unresponsive. I have to wait till Waveform gains the focus.

I don't know how helpful this is, but only recently, I discovered your resolution has an effect on plugins. My laptop's monitor resolution is 4k, and I extend to another monitor that's WAAY less in resolution.
From what I've read, part of the problem is, plugin developers didn't account for high res monitors that may freeze a plugin (I have a problem with Izotope plugins). When I drag an Izotope plugin into the lower res monitor, it comes back to life.
Have you updated the Nvidia drivers?

Both my monitors are full HD. I have no plugins opened. W11 is still unresponsive. Forget the Nelda issue.
The main topic of this bug report is that with OpenGL Waveform GUI freezes.
