I am also having the same issue here. The most important issue is that the game does not even run at a stable 30 FPS. There are FPS lag spikes in certain areas of the game compared to others. Fighting mobs causes even more FPS lag, contributing to choppy and unsatisfactory game-play. Agreeable with one of the comments above that it is straining on the eyes to play with such choppy FPS. This FPS lag on a console is unacceptable, as there is no possible way for the user to improve their FPS performance such as upgrading a GPU or CPU. I hope there is a future patch that optimizes the game properly and maybe even bump up the FPS cap. If the game is too visually intensive for the switch (which would be odd for a voxel game) at least give the players an option to optimize their own graphics settings so that they can achieve a playable FPS. However, I would say that the FPS lag is contributed to poor optimization. Please fix this Mojang! The game is really fun during the absence of FPS lag, but really frustrating to deal with when it is present.
After the update, I am happy to say that the game is in a much better state and is playable with steady FPS! Lag still occurs when there are many mobs to kill, but this is expected and I do not really expect this to get fixed as this could be due to the switch not being a strong enough device to handle the game. However, random FPS drops pretty much no longer occurs for me...at the moment. Will update this post if I encounter any further lag. Unfortunately I see that this patch has not fixed the FPS issue for other players which is unfortunate. ):
