Strangely enough, it's only made it worse.

25-30 fps in cockpit / 55-60 fps on low settings with 100% scale and max anisotropic filtering, with r_deferred 1 (it was 1 by default).
15-20 in cockpit / ~30 fps with r_deferred 0.

What's more surprising is that when I set r_deferred_mirrors to "1" along with r_deferred "1" I got 5-10 fps in cockpit.

After that I changed uset r_mirror_scale_y, uset r_mirror_scale_x and uset r_mirror_view_distance to 0.1 and got another boost.

Now it's 35-43 in cockpit while truck is not moving.

Simply you need to set a lower scale, 75% is the real 100% scale if you see it in the config file, while 100% scale equal to 125% in the config file. This will improve so much the performance.

There is a Good Riddance Mod v1.0 [ETS2 v1.14 ∼] : 2014-11-25 by Hemil. This removes the mirrors and the sunshield from the cabin view (but not the exterior views).

It may be worth a try, just to see if you gain any improvement.

^^ I didn't realise that as I only use the remove sunshield part.

At no time will "these" trucks ever drive on a public road, legally or not, not ever. They are FAKE representation of reality, not reality. That is all.

The very right mirror on the right door is legally required by law.
If a truck missing those mirrors, the driver has a serious problem.
These mirrors avoid serious accidents.

If this was a discussion about real life, what he said would be a requirement. But ETS2 is a game, not real life. Sometimes you have be more realistic about your settings choices than you otherwise might be about how you play the game. A lot of people seem to forget that. And that is their problem. Stopping at stop signs and dimming their lights for the AI is one thing, but playing the game like a slide show because turning off mirrors would be illegal in real life is something else. I think that is taking it all just a little too seriously. And I still say that if someone else doesn't like how you have to play your game because you can't afford a better computer, they should either shut up or buy you a better computer. Because your financial situation is none of their business. But that's just my opinion.

@Axel Slingerland:
The point is that the mirrors don't give the problems, but the huge not vanilla trucks. They are the real poligon-bombs.
