So explain this for an FPS increase - then decrease

[Fi5kuS 57]

I'm getting pretty poor FPS in 3.2 versus 3.0 which made me set on a quest to see if I could tweak my way to better FPS.

 

First of all I added these:

 

[TERRAIN]
SWAP_WAIT_TIMEOUT=30
UseGlobalTerrainView=True

 

These two tweak effectively gave me 7 more FPS (same scenario, graphics, weather etc).

 

Then I added this:

 

[GRAPHICS]
SHADER_CACHE_VERSION=1 

 

...which I know is only a command to delete shaders before starting the game. Strangely enough, when starting P3D I was back with minus 7 FPS. 

 

I have tried removing this tweak etc, and even let my P3D,cfg rebuild to add the first two once more. Now when I add the first tweak, there's no increase in FPS. Can anyone explain this? Had deleting my previous shaders somehow robbed me of better FPS?

Actually, it was just pausing giving med the extra FPS. Forgot to uncheck "pause on task switch". So the tweaks did nothing to my FPS.
