Framerate drop when pressing the 'period' key

Question

Every time I press the 'period' key, the frame rate drops to red (monitored by toggling 'stat fps' in the console). Before you boggle about my use of 'period', I use a dvorak keyboard and 'period' is where the 'e' key is. In any case, pressing the 'period' key causes this drop, what's the deal yo?

Is the key bound to anything in the game? – TZHX Sep 18 '13 at 07:50 — TZHX, Sep 18 '13 at 07:50
It's bound to 'move forward'. – Rojzik Sep 18 '13 at 14:39 — Rojzik, Sep 18 '13 at 14:39

Hah, I figured it out. Posting here in case anyone else has the same issue.

The UDKGame.ini file ..\Documents\my games\Chivalry Medieval Warfare\UDKGame\Config had this line in it:

Bindings=(Name="Period",SecondaryKey=,Command="GBA_MoveForward;RECOMPILESHADERS CHANGED",Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False,bIgnoreCtrl=False,bIgnoreShift=False,bIgnoreAlt=False,Flag="KBFlag_Movement",FriendlyName="MoveForward")

Removed the 'RECOMPILESHADERS CHANGED' part and now it doesn't do that anymore. Hurray for hidden bindings!
