@Umberto.

Finaly I found the issue.

At P3D options I had ticked the box for "use high resolution textures".

Unticking the box solved the issue with the framedrop.

Interesting, I always had the option enabled.

Do you also have a very high "Level of Detail Radius" for Terrain ? The two are likely combined, but I never put it on the maximum value, because it can have a very large impact on VRAM consumption. I always keep it at "High".

Indeed I use the setting at very high.

Will test with high and report again if anything changed.

I assume the the setting of the "high texture resolution" comes across with my tweak TEXTURE_SIZE_EXP=9 and result in the FPS drop
