Ditto, in combat particularly. I’m not really noticing a reduced FPS so much as it seems like the client is spitting a bunch of frames out every 1.5 seconds, like its always playing catch up — post 2/23 patch…..I’m now running min graphics to try and compensate but its STILL sluggish.
Running Win 10 on bootcamped i5 iMac, AMD Radeon 6700m, 12gb RAM. 64 bit client had been working great prior to this patch.

I would echo much of what’s been said.
Mid 2011 iMac
Radeon 6770M 512MB
2.7gHz i5
12gb DDR3
I have tested both the OS X client and the windows client. Nearly same results on both… All drivers, bootcamp, etc. up to date. Framerate decreased by 20%+ post “camera improvement” patch when stationary, EVEN WORSE in SMALL wvw fights, LA, high particle effect areas regardless of graphics settings. Have not attempted to ctrl+H to hide UI, but I would imagine I would get similar results with the same degree of non-playability.
:::EDIT::
Hiding UI results in smoother framerate as others have said.

Post “camera improvement” patch my FPS is down 20-30% across the board with a negligible difference (~5fps) between mid-level settings and “best performance.”
This includes the client running on bootcamp windows (completely up to date drivers/bootcamp version/etc AND mac beta client on OS X 10.10.2. Almost exact same results on all platforms…
When engaging in large fights in wvw performance is decreased exponentially and results in pretty much unplayable scenarios. I used to enjoy 30-45fps on mid level settings on windows client, now cannot manage anything above 20 on lowest possible settings AND 3/4 default resolution. Also tried windowed at reduced resolution in both windows and OS X. No soup…
What’s the deal?!
