  3. Create a new level sequence > Name it "TestLS" > open The Sequence
  4. Click the Properties (The pencil icon located next to the magnet)
  5. Select the option "Allow Level edits only"
  6. Add a new camera (Use the Camera Button on the top hot bar)
  7. Set 2 Keyframes > One keyframe at 0 and another at 150
  8. Click the play button
    Result: The frame rate drastically drops while the camera is playing
    Expected: The frame rate does not drop drastically
