# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `osu!stable-lavd` with a mean FPS that is approximately 5% higher compared to the second run. * **Smoothest FPS**: `osu!stable-bpfland-testing` with the lowest FPS standard deviation and variance, ensuring a more consistent frame rate. * **Best overall**: `osu!stable-lavd` due to a balance of high mean FPS and reasonable frame time variability. # Issues: * The configuration using `osu!stable-lavd-vdeadline` showed significantly higher variability in FPS (higher standard deviation and variance), which might lead to less consistent gameplay experience. * This same configuration also exhibited higher GPU and CPU load variability, potentially indicating inefficiencies in resource utilization. # Summary The benchmark compared three different configurations of the `osu!stable` game utilizing different Linux scheduler configurations. The `lavd` scheduler provided the highest average FPS, making it well-suited for achieving peak performance. However, the `bpfland-testing` configuration was the smoothest, with the most consistent frame times and lowest deviation in FPS, crucial for a stable gaming experience. The `lavd-vdeadline` scheduler presented significantly higher variability in performance metrics, potentially compromising the consistency and smoothness essential for optimal gaming. All benchmarks were carried out on identical hardware and software configurations, ensuring a fair comparison of the scheduler impacts on game performance.
