A prominent open-source dev publishes their findings as to what's going on with Starfield's performance, and it's pretty darn strange.

According to Hans-Kristian Arntzen, a prominent open-source developer working on Vkd3d, a DirectX 12 to Vulkan translation layer, Starfield is not interacting properly with graphics card drivers.

I’m a little shocked not even one hotfix has gone out.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the whole team took a vacation right when the game went into early access. But yes, it is very odd that not one patch has come out yet. I’m sure if everyone did take a vacation, they are probably mostly back now and working on it.

Yeah I bet everyone needed a break after they finally launched. Hopefully the r&r helps them come back fresh to knock some of these issues out.
