GPU particles from missile explosions

Hi all,
I'm noticing a large framerate drop (from a constant 60 down to around 25-35 when ever I zoom in close and sustain lots of missile fire from rats. I don't believe it's the initial explosion/missile coming in, because the frame drop only occurs when the puff of smoke/dust comes off after the explosion. Turning off missile effects gets rid of the problem completely. Is there a graphics setting that allows me to have basic missiles hitting my ship but just exploding as a flash of light, rather than a large complex GPU particle cloud?

Thanks.

I wanna join up. I think I got what it takes to be a Citizen.
