I switched to Cachy 2 months ago and I think my distro hopping days are over. It's so, so responsive and reliable. People scared me off arch-based distros for being bleeding edge but so far it's been very stable, I haven't encountered any major issues.
If you're thinking about switching, do it. Switched off from Bazzite and I'm not looking back.
I was looking at Bazzite too. I just haven’t made the switch because I’m not sure if Nvidia performance drops are a big issue.
Performance should be relatively the same across every distro, there are benchmarks online you can check. I didn't like Bazzite with my short time using it though, being immutable means you have to jump through hoops to install something that isn't available as a flatpak. Like I mentioned in another comment the battery life was also not great, and I found it to be a little slow in general.
