I tried out this method, disabling SMT in BIOS for an AMD processor, after I've had stuttering for the past couple of weeks.
In my case, system is 3950X, 2070 Super, 32GB DDR4.
I can confirm that disabling SMT results in smooth gameplay, albeit at lower performance overall for this and other games as well as other programs I use (as expected). Enabling SMT again with a reboot reliably causes stuttering again, no matter the graphics settings.
Other methods I tried previously without any benefit included lowering resolution from 1440p to 1080p, locking FPS at 144, 120, and 60 FPS, attempting to launch the game with administrator rights, and elevating the process scheduling priorities for the game.
Just wanted to add a +1 to multithreading being an issue. Hope that is resolved in the future as I have to change the setting again for my usual workflow.
Second video link shows starting XP as well as other metrics followed by extraction after incursion with XP gain but no Maelstrom progress:

Same issue. This is maybe the 5th or 6th Maelstrom mode play I've done since this started. Didn't happen until I reached Platinum and has been stuck at 75401 XP for me ever since. I thought the first few times was because I didn't extract successfully, but having just done so, I'm not sure of the issue.
I have a video clip that I'm ready to upload but trying to so says I don't have permission.
