I really, REALLY, don't understand the framerate.

I've never played a game so sporadic with its framerate. Ever. I understand it just launched, but the framerate issues are so weird and random. I'll try and break it down cleanly and pray to God I get some solution out of this.

1. View distance taxes your PC to NO END, the framerate difference between 60 and 100 is staggering.

2. Lowering view distance has no effect in caves, which for the most part are framerate murders for NO reason. Shadowfen is a chore because of this!

3. At times, mostly in major cities, my framerate will slowly crawl from 40 down to about 15, for NO REASON!! Forcing me to restart the client. I'll be in the same location, with the same people running about, but back up to 40 frames per second?? What???

4. Outside of reducing the game to play-doh quality, and reducing view distance below 50, there is no way to increase framerate. Shadows help, but I'm currently playing with them on low.

5. About 4 - the graphical settings and their taxation on your system make no sense, water reflections at ultra don't affect FPS in the slightest, but allowing me to see about 5 feet further into the already short view distance knocks off 10 frames?

Any suggestions? Not trying to complain or bash, but I don't understand what is going on.
