FPS issues since 1.20 (Kart DLC Patch)

[Nashable 10]

So for once it would have been truly legitimate to say "it's your hardware's fault!", but nobody said it. BI community drops the ball again. ;)

It was a very subtle fault that seemed to have developed over several days. What was weird was that it kicked it the exact same day as the patch which is what led me initially astray. What I would recommend anyone in the future with FPS issues is to download something like core temp and just check the CPU frequency is what you think it should be and that your cores are running below 90C (preferably below 80C)

Guess I should check my CPU as well. I just got 15 FPS on a time trial. Those scripts sure take their toll. In the empty editor I have 70+ FPS.
