# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `BPFLAND-default` with 0.3% higher average FPS compared to other runs. It maintains a strong frame rate with a mean FPS that is among the highest. * **Smoothest FPS**: `RUSTY` with the lowest standard deviation and variance in FPS, resulting in the most stable and consistent performance. * **Best overall**: `RUSTY` not only offers the smoothest performance but also has a negligible difference in average FPS compared to the highest run, making it the best overall due to its consistency and stability. # Issues: * The run with the `LAVD` scheduler shows significantly higher variance in FPS (up to 98% compared to the smoothest run), resulting in more fluctuating performance. * The run using `BPFLAND-maxslice-2000` shows slightly worse frame time consistency, with about 82% higher variance in frame time compared to the smoothest run. * While not as critical, `BPFLAND-minus-2000` and `BORE` also exhibit minor performance inconsistencies, shown by their higher variance and standard deviation in FPS. # Summary This benchmark analysis for Overwatch 2, comparing various `sched_ext` schedulers on a consistent hardware and software configuration, highlights `RUSTY` as the top performer. Despite `BPFLAND-default` achieving a marginally higher average FPS, `RUSTY`'s superior stability and consistency make it the best overall choice. Conversely, the `LAVD` scheduler displayed notably more fluctuating FPS performance, which could disrupt gaming experiences. This comprehensive comparison underscores the value of not only high FPS but also consistent and smooth frame delivery for optimal gaming performance.
