Clear drop in VR performance after break away from the game.

Started playing again a couple of weeks ago after a gap of several months and noticed quite a big drop in VR performance. I used to be able to play with both Supersampling and HMD at around 1.75 with nearly everything else up high and smooth performance. Now I have to drop to around 1.25 on both and turn an awful lot else down to get the same smoothness.

In the meantime I had updated drivers but rolled back to 388.59 which many suggested was a good one for Oculus, but I'm still getting the same performance drop.

Did ED change anything else in the recent updates that affected VR? Am I the only one experiencing this?
 
Mixed bag for me, some days it is smooth as butter, sometimes it drops to 45 FPS and there is sever stuttering in outfitting, or -the last time- when attacking Anacondas in a haz res zone. All this, when the GPU is at 60-70% loaded.
I'm going through a dily routine of checking for new stuff to adjust, I was about to do the nVidia driver "update".
 
Keep your drivers up to date. Elite performance constantly went up over the past 2 years in VR. There were issues, but at the moment the game runs smoother than ever.
I noticed, that installing the game on an SSD got rid of some texture studder on planets and suns for me. Also putting the PC on max power mode helped to avoid problems.

I run the game on an i7 4790 K, Nvidia GeForce GTX1080ti Founders edition, 32 Gigs of RAM, M.2 SSD for Win10, SATA SSD for Elite and video capture.
 
There has been a degradation of performance in VR for me too, I've had to lower settings to keep things running smoothly at all and am still suffering from regular random double image issues due to something, no idea what and my pc is usually not at all being being taxed when it happens.
 
Yeah, I've spent the last few days mucking around with drivers and settings and still the same effect; performance is noticeably worse than before meaning I have to turn a lot of things down.
 
Also noticed much more stutter - I've been moving things around USB ports, next step is to go check all the drivers. It used to be much smoother, for the most part. Glad it's not just me....

Same here. Running a 1080Ti and it used to be smooth on high to ultra settings. It stutters badly now. Tried adjusting settings etc but no joy.
