When I disconnect my DisplayLink docking and share my MacBook's screen the slowness goes away.

I am wondering if there is a problem with the new driver that causes the MacBook to overheat and throttle.
I am experiencing the same issue. My setup is an Intel Macbook pro with 2 external monitors connected.. As soon as I start a zoom conference, then the CPU usage of a process named "WindowServer" goes to the roof.. I am not experiencing any issues at all if I dont have the screens attached.
Im running Big Sur with the latest 1.4 Displaylink software.
