HTC Vive issues post 3.3 update

I have recently installed my Vive after a house move - therefore these last few days was the first time I played Elite in VR since 3.3 patch dropped.

Does anyone else had quite a performance drop in VR since this new update? I had to reduce my settings and I still can't get the performance that I used to get. Going below my current settings makes the game blurry and practically unplayable to me.

Also, I have noticed a really bad drift, making me reset the HMD view every couple of minutes. That may be my new lighthouse set up however, I am not sure at this point - saying that, I don't have these problems in any other game, they all work as previously (aka no problems). It's just Elite that I'm having issues with.

These issues combined currently mean Elite in VR is pretty much a no go for me :(
 
I would double check different steamvr versions , beta non beta and reset settings .
Are you using any other apps where you can set SS like fpsVR, OpenVR advancend open e.t.c ?

I used non-beta SteamVR for my testing so far. Reset settings completely, reinstalled the app as well and reconfigured my room set up. Don't use any other SS stuff, apart from the one in-game and SteamVR one.

Have you turned off the new motion smoothing stuff in SteamVR? I read about people having performance issues in some games with it enabled.
