Terrible gaming performance after todays nvidia-dkms update?

Hi, I've updated nvidia-dkms today from 545.29.02-2 to 545.29.06-1 (alongside some other packages, but I don't think they relevant except maybe linux-firmware).

Since this upgrade, I have terrible gaming performance in nearly all games. Left 4 Dead 2 freezes every few minutes for some seconds and also crashes a lot, and Apex Legends runs with about 10 FPS. Both games were running fine at 144FPS before.

Is it just me, or did this happen to anyone else? For now, I've restored my BTRFS snapshot and now everything's working again.

If anyone needs it, here's the full list of updated packages:
