# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `BORE` with around 60% higher average FPS compared to the next highest run. * **Smoothest FPS**: `Rusty` with the lowest standard deviation in FPS, indicating the most consistent frame rate. * **Best overall**: `BORE` as it combines the highest average FPS with strong stability in frame rate. # Issues: * One of the configurations performs significantly worse in terms of FPS compared to the others, with about 45% lower average FPS. * The poorly performing configuration also exhibits significantly higher variability in both FPS and frame times. * All runs use the same hardware and software configurations, so the performance discrepancy is due to the comparison context. # Summary This benchmark evaluates the performance of different Linux kernel sched_ext schedulers—`BORE`, `Rusty`, and `Bpfland`—on Grand Theft Auto V. The `BORE` scheduler outperforms others with the highest frame rate, achieving about 60% higher average FPS compared to other configurations. `Rusty` delivers the smoothest gaming experience with the lowest variability in FPS. However, one configuration, despite using the same hardware and software setup, significantly underperforms, showcasing about 45% lower average FPS and high variability, accentuating the performance divergence among the schedulers.
