Recommended Posts

damn that new binary is blessed by someone, jesus or nurgle I don't care. I was struggling to get my FPS above 2. its now 50 :D

needs more work still, I got some new crashes for fix ;)

Daft question, if you're advertising 1.22 perf/prof 1 as available, why the file itself called DoNotDownload?

And if you do download it, the usual password gets rejected. :)

I'm not advertising is available for download ... did I said so? also the file name is clearly giveaway ...

oh ok, I may have read between the lines a bit there, my bad.

edit: It might be worth changing your OP editing reason if that is indeed the case

Just a question what commands are in the stable 1.22 and what is in the perf?

-cpuCount=XXX

-enableHT

-maxMem=3071

And where is the limit of cpucount? Cant imagine that this is endless.

-cpucount will override -enableHT.

Use cpucount for specifying 2/4/8 cores or use enableHT for using all available logical cores, thats how I understood it.

enableHT is in stable already afaik, so 3GB maxmem and the RPT antispam are the main difference and some small bonus and fixes

Aha. So i shouldnt use cpucount and enableHT at the same time? Last time i used HT it didnt worked well, i posted that some pages ago. Is there somewhere a knowledge base about all the stuff the server can now with/since 1.22 ?

little confused me too... Is best to use cpucount without ht cores with enableht or cpucount with also ht cores?

unfortunately you need test that, yet it shall be better to use the -enableHT (tho we plan to rename it to e.g. -cpuCount=includeHT or -cpuCun=all )

as that tells engine to use microjobs/minortasks threads on the HT cores and not normal threads for full cores

@BL1P : interesting benchmark.

I did a try with param -enableHT and it seems that it improved my frames (not sure because I'm too lazy to perform some bench :)).

did you already tried to bench with this param enabled?

The system i ran the test on is AMD

As far as i know -enableHT has no effect on AMD systems ? could be wrong usually am :)

Did run the same test on stable with -cpucount=6 but it made no difference to the server results.

You're right i didn't saw you had an AMD :)

I confirm that hyper treading is an intel specificity...

Unfortunately my time is limited after work, but I'll try to launch a benck ASAP with intel server to see.

oh, if you are using PERF1, please remember to try to use these commandlines

on machine with 4GB or more

-maxmem=3071

on Intel CPU with hyperhreading

-enableHT

* this tells engine to use logical cores for minor task or microjob threads

for sake of experiment you may also try

-cpuCount=total number of allcores including hyperthreading

*please beware that -cpuCount overrides -enableHT

Is it case sensitive ?

-cpuCount not -cpucount ?

Same test ran with the following .bat on PERF1 (cpuCount and maxmem)
