I've got all sorts of VFR scenery installed for FS2004, I've stuck the game along with all addon content on it's own seperate drive which is defragged at least once a week, going up to 2 gig of memory helped reduce disk swapping (marginally), my machine is no slouch but whacking everything up full with lots of extra's installed, AA and AF and resolution maxed will slow it down, I've found decreasing the visibility range also helps though as it doesn't have to load so many textures.
