Actually, based on my own Googling, I just discovered that support for full screen on the secondary monitor is application specific. So in the case of MA3, I'm going to assume at this point that it is not supported.

So what I'm finding right now is that CPU usage on MA3 increases considerably when it's run in a fully stretched window on the secondary monitor. Also, a frame rate right around 125 fps is what it runs at on the primary monitor, or when running full screen and spanned over both monitors. But when running as a window in the secondary display only, frame rate drops to around 20 fps or less. (Even when said window doesn't overlap in any way with any other monitor.) And CPU Usage consumed by MA3 spikes to about 50%.
