Ugh. Created an account to post my experience.
Since 1.58+ I've had the 2fps bug. I've tried *everything* under the sun; performance files, swapfile changes, regedits, updated ram from 8gb to 16gb, messed with graphics drivers, tried 30 combinations of custom launch options, both via the game launcher, and through the steam launcher, removed all launch options, I've played with view settings, though maxing out view distance and object distance seems to bring on the issue much faster, and lastly, I've tried praying - and to no avail.
I have been playing arma since the old days, arma 2, and arma 3. I'm very saddened by this fps drop issue.
My specs
W10
i7 2600k
SSD - ocz vertex 3 120gb [gaming drive] + ocz agility 3 60gb [OS drive]
16gb fury ram
nvidia gtx 970 driver 368.39
creative titanium hd sound card
options - all ultra, HBAO +, res at 1440p, FXAA
view distance 3000, obj distance 3000,
Every time from 30 minutes to an hour (varies and no clue what causes the variation) I get: DX11 error : CreateTexture failed : E_OUTOFMEMORY in the logs after the drop. If I let it continue, it finally crashes.
This is still a serious issue, and in the Teamspeak for the server of which I play, some 25% of folks of a 60 player server all get the 2fps drop and are forced to restart client.
I know BI is on it, but they need to pick it up -- I don't plan on getting Apex until this is fixed. Thank you

Tried the latest performance file for .60; haven't seen a crash for 2 hours... Although the performance executables help, they do not solve the problem.
