Is this where you zoom in with an optic of some kind and you cannot unzoom (usually vehicles)?

No it's the bug (we have it since december or so?) where you have to spam zoom key 20-30 times with Titan, Tank zoom or other weapons zoom and only after 20 times it would zoom 1 level or so... (Wasteland servers) FINALLY it's fixed! Now only waiting for flickering issues fix! (Houses/trees flicker on high view distance)

Im trying to figure out if these exe's will benefit me, and after some testing I have some questionable results/   

 I run the perf exe in our dedicated server and i can see that the memory stopped leaking. 

today i decided to try the perf exe for my game( i also have the 3fps bug) and ran some benchmarks. 

 http://pasteboard.co/yLlh0Bt8Q.bmp

it looks like the perf exe gives a good result if i run a benchmark when i start the game, but if i play for awhile, the results are poor compared to the vanilla exe after playing for awhile. 

 I use xtbbmalloc , it is configured correctly and i do see a benefit from that compared to the others.  is there a better mem, alloc. to use with this?

For some reason I cannot get the PerfBinary to work with BattleEye.

I'm using the Arma3Sync launcher, it keeps giving me the BattleEye is not enabled popup.

No matter what startup parameters I use it doesn't seem to work.

 

Does anyone know what the problem is?

V17 : 138spieleri77700k.png

and 180 Clients 22 CPS /FPS lets go on to V18

 

V17 = 10% increasement to Stable

 

quite well optimized mission, scripting, callextension(s), server settings and hardware you got there ;)

 

thus it makes me happy to hear about your +~10% improvement experience

note: new 1.68 main branch stable binary will have way (WAY) more optimizations because many could not be merged for various reasons ...

did you replaced the arma3.exe with the binary from profiling (you need rename the one from dropbox) ? (backup the old .exe)

if you used steam client for branch download then you do nothing , performance is default ...

I've been using and updating the Perf. from your dropbox for a while now. I did not use the steam Branch.

Yet there is, since I get the enable battleEye popup.

Or does it still work even thought It's using the battleEye.exe, Cause I assume it doesnt.

Apologies in advance for my (most likely foolish) question. I have a desktop shortcut for the Arma 3 Launcher. When I update the performance exe do I have to do anything with that shortcut? I know how to update the exe's, I've been doing that for a while, but the shortcut just dawned on me. Thanks.
