I have heard this plane is hard on frames.  As a point of reference, I get a whopping 11 frames per second at a major airport (airline traffic 55%, ground 10%) using the PMDG 747.  I also consider the Duke B60 particularly problematic with stuttering and low fps.  On the other hand, Eaglesoft TC and the Piper Cheyenne give my 30-40 in the same situations.  Where does this Cessna Mustang fall on this spectrum?    I actually like to see some trees out the window and 2 or 3 cars on the highway.

Of the aircraft you mentioned I have the Cheyenne, the Duke and the Citation Mustang. I did a quick test with Mega airport Frankfurt and get similar FPS for all 3. From my subjective longer term experience (not FPS counting but the feeling I have from my flights), I would say the Mustang is harder on the system than the Cheyenne - similar or maybe a little less resource hungry than the Duke.

Edit: I have a similar system than yours. I also have stutters with the Duke, but less so with the Citation. What I found with the Citation is that it is quite memory intensive. If you max the autogen and do a lot of changes in viewpoints and take some screenshots during flight, you may get an out of memory error.
