BioWare working on Old Republic framerate issues
A BioWare rep has stated on its forums that the teams are working on a patch to fix the low framerate bug, and suggests some simple steps that can be taken to mitigate the problem in the meantime.
BioWare is aware of low framerate issues for some players of Star Wars: The Old Republic, and working on a permanent solution. Complaints from fans served as the basis of the team's investigation, and they've come up with a short-term fix while they work on the bug.
The response (via Eurogamer) to fan complaints promise more detail soon, but for the time being BioWare suggests closing background applications, turning down the graphics settings, turning off "bloom" in the graphics options, changing settings to favor performance over visuals, and updating your drivers.
It's not much, but it's a start until BioWare offers an official patch. "Our development team and our production team have been investigating this issue and we want to thank everyone who has posted constructively on this thread," the reply states. "You've provided the development team with a basis for investigation into the low FPS issues, and with your help they have identified and are in the process of resolving the indoor framerate drop."

They're not really "issues" per se... lower framerates when you're in a hub with upwards of 200 people in it is just the reality of technology. But even then it's a drop from 100+ down to 30-40, unless you have your settings too high for what your system can handle.

A friend and I had a strange issue in which the default graphics preferences listed everything as "low" when in fact they were set much higher. I resolved this by setting everything to high then back to low, but it made me wonder how many people might be having this same issue.

Fun game, worth an initial purchase but ultimately not worth $15 a month I think.

Fun game, worth the initial purchase and we'll have to see what they add when the "normal" people finally get to 50.

My girlfriend's Laptop has horrid fps issues with it. It's probably an issue with onboard GPUs.
