# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `bl3_p2dq_autoslice_idle_resume_perf` achieves the highest average frame rate, consistently outperforming others by a small margin. * **Smoothest FPS**: `bl3_p2dq_autoslice_idle_resume_sticky` offers the smoothest experience with the lowest FPS standard deviation, enhancing game stability. * **Best overall**: `bl3_p2dq_autoslice_idle_resume_perf` due to its combination of the highest average FPS and a reasonable frame rate stability compared to others. # Issues: * The configuration using the automatic slicing with alternative idle resume parameters performs notably worse in terms of FPS stability, showing a higher variance compared to the alternatives tested under the same Linux scheduler settings. # Summary The benchmark examines the performance impacts of various `p2dq` tuning parameters in "Borderlands 3." All configurations were tested under consistent conditions, with notable differences in the Linux scheduler settings being a key differentiator. The configuration using the `performance` Linux scheduler provided the best results, achieving both high FPS and acceptable stability. In contrast, the auto-slice configurations with different idle resume parameters did not significantly impact overall FPS but had varying impacts on stability, highlighting the intricacies of scheduler tuning on gameplay experience.
