I am able to get better framerates by maxing the object and view distance sliders, then back down to where they were. This performance increase stays with you until you shutdown regardless whether or not you close and relaunch the game.

Additional Information
Despite it staying with you until reboot, maxing the sliders and back to desired amount seems to give you a tiny FPS boost after closing and relaunching the game. Not sure if this is an issue with Windows or maybe forcing ARMA to cache the surrounding area but it's easy enough to do.

I believe this could be an issue with Windows 7 core parking, after boot up the cores are parked leading to poor performance. Using an unparking tool gets the same results. I use this utility (http://www.coderbag.com/Programming-C/Disable-CPU-Core-Parking-Utility) to unpark cores. This feature is meant to dynamically turn on and off to save power, so maxing the sliders is meant to be a little stress test to unpark the cores.
