fixed Performance (FPS) loss from 2.7.6 to 2.7.7

[=37.Sqn= Mjugen]

[Flappie]

Gents, it seems the upcoming performance fix does the job just fine on my rig: no noticeable FPS differences between 2.7.6 and the version I've just tested. I feel pretty optimistic. However, as you know already, we all have different rigs with different settings, which means we can't call it a day right now. The next OB update is yet to be announced. I'm looking forward to getting your feedback.

thank you very much for keeping this in mind and offering us some hope.

Great news. I wonder where was the knot in that graphic jungle: memory mishandling, hidden loop in the code, double shader generation. I am a  chemist: when we screw up, it just blows up, easy.

After a long day this made me a bit more optimistic this evening. And I still crossing the fingers like @speed-of-heat

Good news  

I’ve got my overhead back in 2d and it’s put off the early demise of my GPU from flogging it too much in VR woo hoo.

As flappie said - lets just see what it brings when it lands before we crack out the whiskey

If you break out the whiskey you're going to have to wait 8 hours before flying. This is a simulator.

Seriously? You ask for an update before christmas without explicitly specifying the century and the year ?!

Good news for 2.7.9

It looks like, that Flappies experiances with 2.7.9 matches with mine.
I already tested 2.7.9 on my main PC and on my last posted third environment.

I repeated the test missions (initial post)

- Main PC:

Stable 2.7.6: 84,775 FPS 
OB       2.7.9: 84,785 FPS

- Third Env:

Stable 2.7.6: 43,4  FPS
OB       2.7.9: 43,01 FPS

Thanks Flappie, thanks ED!

Wish you very nice Christmas and a happy new year!

[Flappie]

Thanks for your prompt feedback, @Limaro.

And thanks again for documenting the performance drop. A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you!

Was it the "water surface rendering fix" mentionned in the last changelog ?

Something else related to shadows drawing ?

 

[TAW_Impalor]

I concur. 2.7.9 in VR is back to 2.7.6 level, i.e. FPS are 6% better than 2.7.8. Hope they have indeed found the cause and not dialed some settings lower!

Yes, I think so, since this new water surface rendering effect was introduced in 2.7..7.

[speed-of-heat]
