I recently switched from 2.6.4 fraps to 2.9.4 fraps, and I have noticed my FPS has gone down as well. But that's only because I'm actually recording full size this time ( Not sure if 2.6.4 didn't support 1680x1050 resolution ). I suggest that if you're going to make videos for people to stream only, ie youtube or just filefront stream, record in half-size.
My sprcs:
E6750 @ 3.4ghz
3870 @ 850/1200
7200RPM Sata HD
Asus Maximus Formula
22" 1680x1050 Widescreen
I believe the above specs are the only specs that matter when frapsing. With these specs, I average 20-40 fps when recording in full-size during boss fights. It does get a little choppy and dips down to 15 sometimes, but I think that's just my HD yelling at me to stop =P
