In the following setup, I have three compact mechanical pumps in series. With "Limit output water level" enabled, FPS ends up falling off a cliff. It seems to compound as more are enabled. With just the first, FPS is fairly normal; second, it's measurably worse; by the third, it's multiple seconds per frame.
