YES, YES, YES. This is the worst nightmare in Premiere. It makes the software feel practically unusable with this kind of footage, and yet my clients insist on working with it, I HATE this. I've got absolutely the same results like you, super smooth playback in Resolve, and Premiere...
How does this have not more upvotes?? -

I have replicated this issue on numerous computers with DJI footage and other Long GOP footage that contains a large number of consecutive P frames. I have done so on unlike systems such as older Xeon, newer Xeon, and new Core processors. The lag observed is an increase in the prefetch latency, that is resolved for a short time by clearing the media cache.

I have the same problem in CS6. I have been using PP for 20 years, and always found it to be excellent, but this problem really lets it down.
Why doesn't Adobe address the problem? -
