# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `dirt3_wine-tkg-staging-git-10.0rc6.r0.gd0d5fef5_fsync` with significantly higher average FPS than other runs. * **Smoothest FPS**: `dirt3_proton_experimental_bleeding-edge_fsync` as it has the lowest standard deviation and variance in FPS. * **Best overall**: `dirt3_proton_experimental_bleeding-edge_fsync` combines high FPS with excellent frame time consistency, making it the best overall performer. # Issues: * The run using `wine-tkg-staging-git` with `wineserver` has a significantly lower mean FPS compared to other runs. This might be due to the use of `wine-tkg-staging-git` with `wineserver`, which does not optimize performance as effectively as the other tested configurations. # Summary The benchmark comparison of different synchronization methods and configurations for the game Dirt 3 on Linux, specifically using `wine-tkg-staging-git`, `proton_experimental`, and different synchronization methods like `esync`, `fsync`, and `ntsync`, reveals substantial performance differences. The `proton_experimental` configurations with either `fsync` or `esync` significantly outperform the traditional `wine-tkg-staging-git` setups. They provide higher average FPS and smoother frame times, with `proton_experimental` with `fsync` leading in overall performance due to its balance of high FPS and stability. The disparity in performance highlights the improvements brought by the `proton` configurations, which produce a better gaming experience by leveraging advanced sync methods and better integration with the Steam environment.
