Posted this in FS Forum, but curious to see if others here are experiencing the same...

Been flying in most major cities/airports around the world with solid FPS performance using the ULTRA graphics preset. Since the original version and through all the updates, no issues with FPS. After the update, KDFW and surrounding area is a slide show for me. Two of us tested this with same big FPS hit.

-no hardware changes
-no mods
-no software changes
-tested removing KDFW from Content Manager and FPS went back to “normal”
-waited long enough to ensure it was not caching delay related
-restarted the computer too

Given that I can fly over complex large cities and airports with good FPS, I have to believe that KDFW could use some optimization.
This is my local airport, so was exited to use the update, but will keep it uninstalled with hopes that Asobo optimizes it.

If you want an answer then maybe you should start by not using that black background, it is terribly annoying.

I just did a test and no issues here. High frame rate 45 to 55 fps, no stutters.

Mostly ultra settings. 1920x1080.

Many times restarting the computer solves performance issues.

using dark view in chrome and didn't realize it was showing white on black. Edited.

Thanks for the feedback. I did test re-booting too.  If I turn down my terrain level of detail from 200 to 100, everything is fine, but that defeats the point that I've not had FPS issues until KDFW.) Are you getting the same FPS at KDFW whether you remove it from the Content Manager or not?

I have no removed it from content manager.  I do have my LOD to 200 on both terrain and object. Tree and grass and cloud set to ultra.

Maybe turn off and on your photogrammetry.

I'm also getting a hit in performance, especially at KATL & KDFW. At night in Las Vegas is was a slideshow. Having said that, once you load the airports and fly around day or night the next time you load the are performance is much better, but still not as good as I wish.

I do not notice any difference in performance after the patch, but I have not tested in the US, a small difference is to be expected where they updated the scenery.

Can you test KLAS at dusk. It's a stutter fest! What have they done to my sim?

What's your memory utilization? I saw your post and tried to check the performance at KLAS, but got an OOM twice (16 gigs here)... Maybe that's the reason?

Is it the same with photogrammetry disabled?

I think I got a hit on fps two. I noticed that my local US city seems to have an updated and far better photogrammetry. Could be that MSFS has to download and process a massive amount of new data. Will test more tonight. 

I had a huge hit on fps too. Try to reset do default on the graphic settings and then set you prefered settings. That solved it for the most. But still getting less fps than before the patch...

Hello Team.

I have also noticed a degradation of performance; I can't get past 30-32 fps.  Been tweaking settings to no avail.  Here are my specs:

I figured out why my fps were awful. AI traffic was set to 50% offline. Incredible! Back to my normal 30fps.
