Marvel Rivals Krakoa BORE vs bpfland vs lavd

Krakoa map, replay used for consistency, BORE is with ananicy enabled and "out of the box" gaming experience like fresh CachyOS install for Linux noobs like me, while bpfland and lavd has ananicy disabled according to CachyOS wiki. Launch chain used for tests: env __GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=1 __GL_YIELD="USLEEP" __GL_MaxFramesAllowed=1 DXVK_ASYNC=1 DXVK_FRAME_RATE=0 LD_PRELOAD="" mangohud game-performance %command%

# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `bpfland` with approximately 2% higher mean FPS compared to the other runs. * **Smoothest FPS**: `bpfland` with the lowest frame time variance, resulting in the smoothest experience. * **Best overall**: `bpfland` providing the highest FPS and smoothest performance among all runs, making it the best overall. # Summary In this benchmarking analysis on the Krakoa map using a consistent replay, the comparison focused on the use of different scheduling settings while keeping the hardware and other software configurations constant. The `bpfland` scheduler with `ananicy` disabled delivered the highest average FPS and smoothest performance compared to `BORE` and `lavd`, both of which had similar settings, but with slightly lower FPS and higher performance variation. The test environment leveraged `CachyOS` with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 and AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, ensuring a high-performance baseline, highlighting the significant difference that scheduling optimizations can make.
