FPS Loss since Very Merry Wintersday Patch

Hi!

Has anyone else noticed FPS drops since the wintersday patch? I have 15fps while standing still and 3-5 while moving. It doesn’t matter in which map I am, how crowded the place is, how many effects are on screen, or how low or high I set the graphics options, or if the antivirus is activated or not. Yes, even activating subsampling didn’t help. Yes, it was better before the patch.

Specs:

  • Intel Core i5-4500
  • 8 GB RAM
  • GeForce GT 740M
  • Windows 8
  • If I missed something essential, it’s a Lenovo IdeaPad Z510

Yes, I know that my specs are far from optimal (as is gaming on a notebook in general), but I just want the game to be playable (~20fps in dungeons, less in WvW/Lions Arch) again.
