Performance Issue/Severe Stuttering with TrackIR

[RRVyper]

Just wanted to post that I found the solution for the severe stuttering in DCS 2.9 I was experiencing when panning the view using TrackIR, in the hopes it might help someone else.

It turns out I had "Disable Fullscreen Optimizations" checked in the Properties/Compatibility settings for Track-IR. I believe I had it disabled for another flight sim but forget now why or which sim, or even what issue it fixed.

Now I can finally use 2.9 after it being unplayable since I updated from 2.8.

Edit: stuttering came back the next day so disregard this 'fix'.

@Arcc

Right-click on the shortcut you use to launch TrackIR (or the actual program). Select Properties. You should then see the Compatibility tab.

Not sure what you are saying. I don't pan with the mouse.

Well, I fired up DCS today and the stuttering was back. So disregard my 'fix' (I'll edit the first post). It turns out just shutting down and restarting DCS causes the stuttering to go away. I will try loading a different location and see if stuttering comes back and report back. Sorry for any inconvenience.

So it appears my stuttering is probably caused by objects in the distance getting loaded into memory off a slow hard drive. It's most noticeable when taking off and gaining altitude while, at the same time, panning around. Restarting the sim just loads from the cache. Using lower graphics settings does not make an appreciable change. I previously had DCS on an NVME drive. When I decided to reinstall after not using DCS for quite a while and after getting some new flight hardware I chose a slow storage drive. What was I thinking?? I will rectify this and hopefully things will work out.

Thank you for your answer. although it does not solve the problem, i learned something.

Confirmed that my issue was the slow hard drive. Moved DCS to Samsung 990 Pro NVME M.2 drive that arrived today and no stuttering at all when panning. Good times.
