Audio clipping/pops/clicks and voice dropping

OLED user here. I recently upgraded to community 1.2, and I am finding issues with what I assume is CPU usage. I get a fair bit of pops and clicks when playing just 7 clips. On the official firmware I never experienced this with equal or more tracks.
I've made sure I am using synths with single unison, reasonable priority settings (medium), digital delay, freeverb, no fancy new FX, just phaser and chorus, no compressors.
The problem seems to occur when I introduce synths with multi samples from the BOD sounds packs, and a drum track.
I don't think the firmware still has the CPU monitor so I can't confirm it's CPU but this seems to be the most natural conclusion.
I have searched for others with the same issue, but it seems I may be an edge case. I welcome any help or suggestions.

i believe also that some newer BOD presets that utilize samples may have loop points that cause pops/clicks since the loop points aren't perfectly at zero-crossing points.
