# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `no_scx`, with approximately 0.3% higher mean FPS compared to `scx_flash -k -u`. * **Smoothest FPS**: `no_scx`, with around 3% lower standard deviation of FPS compared to `scx_flash -k -u`. * **Best overall**: `no_scx`, since it offers both higher average FPS and smoother performance. # Summary The benchmark evaluates the performance difference between using "scx_flash -k -u" and the stock Cachyos kernel in a Rust gaming scenario. Both setups utilized the exact same hardware and environment, including CPU, GPU, and Linux kernel versions. The run without the `scx_flash -k -u` configuration delivered a slightly higher FPS and exhibited a slightly smoother performance with less variability in frame rates. This suggests a marginal advantage of using the stock configuration without SCX in terms of both performance and stability for this specific environment and testing scenario.
