Constant Connections To ED Server Is Breaking Persian Gulf Map

[Tinkickef]

Thanks to the person who advised that the lack of performance was due to heavy network activity.

 

Persian Gulf performance terrible for the last few weeks. Having got the jitters yet again, and removing the Rift and putting it back on again failed to cure it, I remembered that thread about network activity.

 

Soo I pulled my wifi dongle from its extension cable. Jitters went immediately, then came back a couple minutes later with a vengeance and the game froze.

 

Closed the game with task manager and kept it open this time to look at this strange network activity and monitor everything else.

 

Restarted the game and sure enough, loads of network spikes at 100%

 

Jitters as usual.

 

Closed the game and restarted it, letting it log into the DCS server, then pulled my wifi adapter.

 

Nice and smooth sat on the tarmac at Al Dhafra, starting the Hornet up. Then freeze and crash. (log enclosed)

 

 

 

 

This time I did not reconnect my Wifi adapter, therefore not allowing it to connect to the DCS server; just started the game on the three day grace period..

 

Smoothest mission I have had for several weeks, NO hourglass stutters, no jitters, good FPS.

 

 

Absolutely know nothing about examining logs but...

Looking at the log, it looks to be trying to load every damn thing on the DCS server onto my PC and also firing large quantities of information back to the ED server.

 

This all started a couple of updates ago.
