Is Mass Effect 3 multiplayer causing my system to overheat?

I operate the system from a cool location, suspended to allow air flow below the unit and improve heat dissipation, and yet it appears that multiplayer gameplay, after about an hour of play which is a fairly short period of time, is showing signs of game breaking frame dropping. This may or may not be related to other people's issues with the game and Dropping Framerate on some maps, but it seems to carry over in relation to intensive processing from gameplay to menus and back to gameplay again.

Basically, it would appear that Mass Effect 3 is having a deleterious effect on the performance and lifespan of my PS3 to the point that I can clearly observe the effect taking hold and am alarmed enough to report about it here.

Anybody else play the game often and notice changes in their system performance?

Perhaps you have encountered this, it is a bug in MP  - lag & the HDD indicator constantly flashing.

I tried playing a MP session on my old (big) PS3 lately...surprisingly no problems. The slim one heats up big time despite placing it in the open.

I have confirmed indicator light at time of stall. Hard drive indicator light almost constant. Issue is not heat but a bug with access related to loading of faction units during objectives.

I am running the download version of the game.

In a way, I am relieved that it is already a documented bug and not a new one, and that a bug of this nature can be corrected.
