# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `KSM+adaptivemm` provides the highest average FPS, outperforming the others slightly. * **Smoothest FPS**: `NOKSM` demonstrates the smoothest performance with the lowest standard deviation and variance in FPS. * **Best overall**: `KSM+adaptivemm`, despite not having the lowest variance, offers a balance of high average FPS and consistent frame delivery. # Summary This benchmark presents a comparison of kernel same-page merging (KSM) configurations on `CachyOS` using the AMD Radeon R7 370 Series GPU and the AMD FX-6300 CPU. The `KSM+adaptivemm` configuration leads with the highest average FPS, suggesting that the adaptive memory management daemon positively impacts performance. However, smoothness in frame delivery favors the `NOKSM` setup, which achieves the lowest standard deviation in FPS, indicating more consistency in frame times despite slightly lower overall FPS. The choice between these setups would depend on whether maximum FPS or smoothness is prioritized, but `KSM+adaptivemm` provides a commendable balance in real-world gaming scenarios, offering a minor edge in both areas.
