# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `BORE_1` with the mean FPS being the highest among all runs. * **Smoothest FPS**: `LAVD_NO_COMPACTION_2` having the lowest standard deviation of FPS. * **Best overall**: `BORE_2`, balancing high FPS and low variance. # Issues: * Run with `LAVD_2` has significantly higher FPS variance compared to others, with nearly three times the variance of the smoothest run, indicating inconsistent performance. # Summary In this benchmark comparison of `BORE`, `LAVD`, and `LAVD_NO_COMPACTION` schedulers on `sched-ext`, the `BORE` configuration shows superior performance, providing the highest frames per second (FPS). Specifically, the `BORE` configuration consistently delivered better results, indicating smoother gameplay. However, when focusing on frame consistency, `LAVD_NO_COMPACTION` presented the smoothest performance, showing the least variability in FPS. A key issue identified was with the `LAVD` scheduler, which exhibited significant FPS inconsistency, impacting the overall performance stability. All comparisons were conducted under identical hardware and software configurations, ensuring a fair assessment of each scheduler's efficacy in managing game performance under similar loads.
