osu!stable + ffmpeg - BORE 5.2.6 - sched_burst_exclude_kthreads=1 vs sched_burst_exclude_kthreads=0

I ran benchmark with sched_burst_exclude_kthreads=0 twice after running one with sched_burst_exclude_kthreads=1 to make it effectively be BORE 5.2.6 vs BORE 5.2.5

# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `osu!stable-BORE-exkthread-1` - This run achieved approximately 2% higher mean FPS compared to the other run and the top 97th percentile FPS was also slightly higher. * **Smoothest FPS**: `osu!stable-BORE-exkthread-1` - With a variance in frame time that is significantly lower (around 96% less) compared to the other run, this run provides the smoothest FPS experience. * **Best overall**: `osu!stable-BORE-exkthread-1` - Combining the higher average FPS and significantly lower frame time variance, this run renders the best overall performance. # Issues: * The run labeled `osu!stable-BORE-exkthread-0` has a substantially higher frame time variance (almost 96% higher), indicating inconsistency in frame rates which could result in noticeable stuttering or uneven gameplay experience. # Summary This benchmark compares the performance impact of enabling `sched_burst_exclude_kthreads=1` against `sched_burst_exclude_kthreads=0` in the context of running osu!stable with ffmpeg on BORE 5.2.6. Enabling `sched_burst_exclude_kthreads=1` shows a clear performance advantage, delivering not only higher average FPS but significantly smoother rendering with far lower frame time variance. This setting demonstrates superior overall performance for users prioritizing a more stable and consistent gaming experience on similar hardware configurations.
