Yes and no. Using a cracked version of Metro 2033 (I must emphasise that it's
for testing only, nothing else) the game at first runs well enough, but
encounters frequent slows to a crawl, with a lot of these in the console.

Large blocks of one, then the other. I don't really have much else to go on.

The other thing is that it seems to help with a few other games. Super Street
Fighter IV for instance has a benchmark that now seems to run at 100 FPS better
than before. It crashes after the benchmark though. There are also slight
improvements to the Witcher 2's performance.
