Tankbuster 1747 Posted September 13, 2015 you will lose nothing, SSE2 one should become the next default one Excellent. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djotacon 190 Posted September 14, 2015 new variant of TBB 4.4 allocator released on the https://www.dropbox.com/sh/582opsto4mmr8d8/3BSy9PdRGm it's compiled with SSE2 support (previous non-SSE2 library is there too in cases of trouble) Testing the new allocator I see a a fps drop in the YAAB test of Arma 3 23.4 to 24.7 using the default allocator instead the new allocator with SSE2. I use the stable 1.50 (not the performance one) combined with the new allocator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I use the stable 1.50 (not the performance one) combined with the new allocator. I'd say that's still within the margin of error. Unless those numbers are averages of multiple runs.

djotacon 190 Posted September 14, 2015 I'd say that's still within the margin of error. Unless those numbers are averages of multiple runs. This is a average fps result of the YAAB test. Testing 3 times. Default memory allocator: 24.7 (average fps) New allocator 23.4 (average fps) Default allocator again: 24.5 (average fps new run with a new result and a margin error of 0.2 fps).

Dwarden 1125 Posted September 14, 2015 djotacon did you tested also the SSE vs SSE2 one ? (both are on dropbox) please do realize the only difference is compiling switch in VS https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/7t5yh4fd(v=vs.110).aspx the difference between previous allocator and actual one are fixed crashes and bugs (as see in the Intel's TBB changelog) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MonnieRock 2 Posted September 14, 2015 Dwarden, Thank you for all the time and effort you put into trying to make Arma the best it can be. Running the TBB 4.4 allocator with SSE Running the arma3client_performance_150_132376_v7.exe YAAB is giving me 37.2(three run average) Default Ultra Setting 1080p(1920x1080) 4960x @ 4.5ghz TitanX@ Stock Thank you, Monnie 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dvdbrewster 12 Posted September 21, 2015 NOTE: 1.50.132052 PROF/PERF v3 CHIMERA servers up! you don't need need new client on such server ! it's recommended with 132052 to also use performance client on KOTH CHIMERA EU server(s)! 22 servers now test run PERF/PROF branch as part of project "CHIMERA" servers on 2.5GHz Xeon (4x33 players) located in Prague 81.0.236.125:2102 81.0.236.125:2202 81.0.236.125:2302 81.0.236.125:2402 servers on 3.7GHz Xeon were added (2x81 players) located in Paris 94.23.112.9:2102 94.23.112.9:2202 servers on 2x2.9GHz Xeon were added (13x(72-84) players) located in Paris 37.187.132.224:2102 37.187.132.224:2202 37.187.132.224:2302 37.187.132.224:2402 37.187.132.224:2502 37.187.132.224:2602 37.187.132.224:2702 37.187.132.224:2802 37.187.132.224:2902 37.187.132.224:3002 37.187.132.224:3102 37.187.132.224:3202 37.187.132.224:3302 servers on 3.6GHz Xeon were added (3x100 players) located in Canada 192.99.47.216:2102 192.99.47.216:2202 192.99.47.216:2302 running special performance server binary ;) blazing fast FPS rumored ;) (compatible with STABLE clients) enjoy and report PERF = STABLE branch compatible, no debug layer, no #captureFrame nor diag_captureFrame PROF = STABLE branch compatible, with debug layer, with #captureFrame / diag_captureFrame possible server fps increases (tho buzz between admins is up to 100% depending on the mission/hardware used) and clients report noticeably higher fps too (up to 3x) on both Altis and Stratis downloads PROF/PERF available here , client and server , https://www.dropbox.com/sh/582opsto4mmr8d8/3BSy9PdRGm * AI usage/traffic related improvements ... usual password: test Thanks Dwarden.

chris-t 1 Posted September 22, 2015 I tried various performance builds, and none of those had any impact on the Koth server. Same old song, inside the circle frames drop to 20 and below. AMD FX 8350 @ 8x 4.4 Ghz Nvidia GTX 780 Win 10 16 GB Really, NO change at all. I call placebo. PS. Why is my bi studio account reset?

eriktrak 76 Posted September 24, 2015 Playing on KOTH server without performance client gave me 20-25 fps on average. After the perf client been installed went up to 25-35 fps. Number of players were around the same in both session. However beginning in the mission i had serious desync problem for 2-3 minutes (yellow/red chain, objects movig forward and backward) Dont know if it is related to the perf client or not. Gonna test again today. Improvement definitely visible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dwarden 1125 Posted September 25, 2015 Is the Steam version updated (using: CautionSpecialProfilingAndTestingBranchArma3)? So performance client available only using dropbox download? it's the same, but not always the STEAM is updated (especially prior weekend or at weekend) my dropbox is simpler as you just download 1 binary (and dll if there is new allocator) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cobrajr 0 Posted September 27, 2015 Whats happened to the chimera servers?Have only seen one for the last week and its has high ping since it's in France. Myself and a bunch of friends usually play on US1 (Montreal?) because of the low ping and it just runs so much better than other KOTH servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chris-t 1 Posted September 30, 2015 What happens now with the 1.52 build? Are your optimizations in that or do you need to continue to tweak the build? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwarden 1125 Posted September 30, 2015 all from 1.50.performance binaries is in 1.52.stable only TBB allocator in 1.52.stable is SSE , not SSE2 ... (that's why I keep it on dropbox) so wait until new PERF binaries with new round of fixes, tweaks and optimizations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenfist 1863 Posted September 30, 2015 only TBB allocator in 1.52.stable is SSE , not SSE2 ... (that's why I keep it on dropbox) Why is that? SSE2 is not stable enough or does it just need more testing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
