Strange Behaviour/ Lag with Clay Strips Brush in 3.6

Hello friends,

I am having strange behaviour when I use the Clay Strips brush in Blender 3.6 and the latest 3.6.1.

In some areas, when I go to lay down a stroke, it does nothing for a second or so, then adds displacement randomly.

It has trouble calculating the surface or something like that. I am still trying to figure it out. It's random as well. Also the sculpting experience in 3.5 is buttery smooth with the clay strips but not in 3.6 or 3.6.1. I cannot achieve the same results as with 3.5 with this particular brush, and it just feels off now.

I have no issue with the same file in 3.5; the Clay strips behave as they should. I even opened a new project in Blender 3.6.1 and appended the model to ensure it wasn't a 3.5 setting that was conflicting. Also, there are no textures applied to the brush.

The other brushes I have used are working fine in 3.6 though.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Please see the video below for the erratic behaviour I am talking about. This video was recorded using 3.6.1, which was released today.
