# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `LAVD` provides the highest average FPS, offering improved performance in terms of frames per second. * **Smoothest FPS**: `LAVD --performance` offers the smoothest experience with the lowest variance, indicating more consistent frame timing. * **Best overall**: `LAVD --performance` is the best overall due to its combination of high FPS and lowest variance, which ensures both performance and consistency. # Issues: * The configuration with power save settings shows a significant drop in FPS, suggesting it's less effective under this scheduler configuration compared to others. * The performance differences across tests do indicate variations that could be attributed to different power management settings. Despite the same scheduler label, varying FPS output might suggest diverging internal configurations. * Some configurations with high variance demonstrate less consistent frame performance, which may affect real-time gaming experiences negatively. # Summary This benchmark study highlights the effects of different power management modes in Linux kernel version `6.12.1` on Rocket League gameplay performance. The `LAVD` configuration provides the highest FPS, demonstrating robust performance capabilities. However, configurations labeled as `--performance` show the smoothest performance with minimal frame variance, providing consistent frame rates. Notably, configurations under power-saving modes tend to show reduced FPS performance, likely affecting gameplay experience. Overall, this suggests a balancing act between achieving high FPS and ensuring frame consistency, with `--performance` configurations providing a good compromise for users seeking an optimized gaming experience.
