Steam Overlay problems

As of one of the latest updates, whenever I press shift+tab, the overlay flickers over and over again but doesn't actually appear and let me use it.

On top of that, it leaves tf2 running like it's about to crash. The game skips and stutters kind of like I have 500 ping. It doesn't stop doing this until I alt+tab out of the game and then back in.

Any ideas?

edit: I have already verified and defragged game cache files.

I realize it's not helpful, but I am also having the same problem.

I get this in a different game as well, could be something not to do with the game specifically but the overlay. Maybe an update messed it up or something.
