Severe FPS drop with small planes : is it this...?

Any digital instrument panel (Garmins) cause a 15-20 FPS drop on my system
I wish that was something they could fix

The problem you are having I have even in planes with analogue only instruments.
I happens over some airports (even some that only have a grass landing strip and a hanger!) and over some locations on a map that doesn’t seem specific to objects on the ground
