Yea I am PCIE 2.0.

Other settings which may or may not be relavent -

vblank_mode=0, swapbufferswait off, 1920x1080 fullscreen, quality high,
antialiasing off.

I tried with hud and see 10-20MB requested with the stream change reverted and
8kb with it.

The fps counter on hud does show the pauses - though even the good case looks
bad on that - but the biggest pauses it shows are between scenes when the
screen has faded to black, I guess you kind of expect something to be loading
then.

I'll upload a couple of screens.
