Since the new patch eve runs like a dog on my laptop when there are a lot of objects on screen.
If I'm in an asteroid field and I have the asteroids in view on the screen my laptop slows to a crawl, if I angle my view away from the asteroids it goes back to what it was before the patch.
My laptop isn't great but pre patch it ran everything fine - not brilliant but very useable - post patch it drops to maybe in the region of 1-2 fps with asteroids in view. Even going through UI menu selections is slow and cumbersome.

Laptop specs:
ASUS F5SL win 7 sp1 32 bit, 4gb ram, core 2 duo 1.83ghz direct X 11

I know the laptop is low spec, but it coped fine pre patch - the performance difference pre and post is too great..
Shout if you want more info, or diagnostic tests.
