# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `scx_flash -m all -C 0 -c 0 -w -p` with approximately 6% higher FPS than the other configurations, excelling in performance in the tested CPU limited static scene. * **Smoothest FPS**: `scx_beerland`, exhibiting the lowest frame time variance and providing the most stable frame experience among the runs. * **Best overall**: `scx_flash -m all -C 0 -c 0 -w -p`, because while the stability is reasonably consistent, it delivers significantly higher FPS which is crucial in a performance-centric evaluation. # Summary This benchmark evaluation compared different configurations of the `Halo Reach` game under specific conditions, focusing on different `scx` schedulers in combination with a standard `BORE` approach. Among the configurations, `scx_flash` demonstrated the top average FPS, delivering approximately 6% more frames compared to other runs. Meanwhile, `scx_beerland` provided the smoothest gaming experience with the lowest frame time variance. Hence, the runs equipped with specific `scx` schedulers yielded a balanced trade-off between FPS performance and stability. Overall, such configurations could significantly impact gaming experience, especially in scenes where CPU resources are limited.
