I tested before and after in four different quick missions. My lowest FPS has increased over land, but the stuttering is worse, especially when taking my first looks left and right. After half a minute things do settle down, but overall I have more stutter now, even over the channel.
Before and after FPS:
Free Flight Channel
Min 48 Max 73 Av 52
Min 44 Max 96 Av 58
Free Flight England
10, 70, 48
27, 53, 36
London Sight Seeing
5, 52, 33
13, 78, 26
Dogfight Even
39, 59, 52
19, 58, 46
I'm running slightly optimistic settings: high detail and everything on, except Buildings, building detail and forest which are on medium. AA is 2x. This was previously OK and I like the eye candy so don't mind slightly less FPS. Now though, I think the stutter will be a problem.

Forgot to say, now I get a black screen on loading. Need to Ctrl+Alt+Del > Task manager to get it going.
