Just switched my V-Core 3 to hybrid mode.

I am using the V-Core 4 (300) Rat OS configuration. I am now getting stepper driver warnings that I didn't get when I was in non hybrid mode. I'm a bit surprised. I am getting the warnings on all Z motors the X motors and the Y motors. I am wondering what might be causing the stepper drivers to be running hotter now?

Check that your electronics enclosure fan is running and unobstructed

The run currents seem to have all increased from 1.1 to 1.6 Yep electronics fan is running. When I compare my previous non hybrid RatOS.cfg with the new RatOS.cfg I see that the run currents for X,Y and Z motors have all increased from 1.1 to 1.6 which is curious as I had thought I was running in performance mode previously? Extruder stepper run current is hasn't changed rom 0.707 (Orbiter 2.0) Clearly I wasn't running performance mode before and clearly I need to upgrade my stepper driver cooling to run in performance mode!
