Top runs:

• Highest FPS: lavd has the highest average FPS, with approximately 16% more than the next leading configuration.
• Smoothest FPS: lavd also exhibits the smoothest performance, demonstrating the lowest standard deviation and variance in FPS, indicating significant stability.
• Best overall: lavd is the best overall, combining both high FPS and excellent stability compared to other runs.

Issues:

• The lavd-tuning configuration shows significantly lower average FPS, about 14% lower than the best-performing configuration, which could point to potential inefficiencies or misconfigurations during this run.
• The frame time variance in the lavd-tuning configuration is markedly higher, indicating a less stable performance. This variability can result in a choppy user experience.
• The GPU load fluctuates more drastically in the lavd-tuning run compared to others, which suggests that this configuration might not be optimal for the set testing environment.

Summary

In this benchmark, all configurations ran on the same hardware and operating system, focusing on the performance of the lavd scheduler under stress testing conditions with osu!stable and stress-ng. The plain lavd configuration yielded the highest FPS and demonstrated the most stability, making it the superior choice in these tests. Adjusted configurations, lavd-tuning and its second version, showed considerable drops in performance and stability, likely due to suboptimal tuning. This suggests that the default lavd scheduler settings are better suited for this specific workload on the tested hardware.
