Strange issue with performance.
I run 7 mining clients at 5760x1080. I don't use DXnothing as I was told just having it show up in the EVE online log will get you banned via direct conversation with ccp Pedigo (for client modification). I do add a few sources and viewers from each client to make it easy to just mouse click on my char picture to switch windows. I don't use click thru. The more viewers and sources I add the more FPS I lose. I set 15/70 but only manage to get 40ish FPS running 7 clients. Also my Microstudder goes way way up. With no video FX profile loaded I get 316-321 FPS and 3.1-3.8 ms if I turn off frame limiting. I have played with cpu affinity inside the cpu wizard and outside just setting it manually with no increase in performance. I have a 1080TI 2025mhz core and 5880MHZ mem and run a Threadripper 1950 @3.9 all core and 16gig ram. I am using half my system memory and less then half my video memory. 4C and 4T to each client. no change if I assign all cores to each slot.
Now the weird thing is I do the crazy thing and raise my resolution to 115020x2160 (Three 4k screens)all graphics maxed out except AA I get the same 40ish FPS with video FX profile loaded. my in station fps average is 65-89 FPS without the profile loaded its not really playable as ship spinning and npc/ asteroid belts bring it down to below 30.
Why would the FPS be 40 ish no matter what the graphics are set to with a VFX profile loaded? Again I am not using DXnothing. I can find no service that I can assign more cpu or resources too. My videofx proflie does not seem to stress the video card at all and isn't showing any additional significant cpu time (threads) maybe 1-2% on a core but I can't even trace it... it's indistinguishable. The micro stutter is weird. I know all this would be resolved with DXnothing but again The head security guy at ccp has theory crafted that you wouldn't run DXnothing unless you were cutting and pasting the client up into pieces and thats a perma ban now so I'll Pass. I wish they would leave multiboxers alone and go after the bots we are there most dedicated players but thats another Thread. Anybody have a suggestion I don't think throwing yet to be released more powerful hardware at the issue is gonna work.
