Time to explore just how different Portal 2 can be when you force everything to the absolute low.
More commands suggested by people:
mat_queue_mode 2
"This setting determines the threading mode the material system uses. A value of -1 uses the default for your system, a value of 0 uses synchronous single thread, 1 uses queued single threaded mode, and value of 2 uses multi-threaded mode. Many users report performance increases on multi-core systems when setting this variable to a value of 2."
