Performance survey.

Post by rlame »

Hello!

I'm interested on how this game run on different setups.
So please download linked savegame (7-zipped or .sav) and
post how many seconds it took for you to run one day and total of 10 days from beginning of save and what cpu and ram you have.

My setup Ryzen 2700x 16gb ddr4 3333mhz.
Cpu boost in test was 4100mhz.


Example:
First day time 16,5s.
From start of save to sept 6th (10 days) 2min 26s = 14,6s / day average.

zipped

.sav
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Sy3YfZ ... sp=sharing

(edit added .sav file for users without 7z, updated better instructions)

If you want a really good test, do both the first day and the total of 10 days divide by 10 for an average speed.

i3-4160T/8GB/Intel HD 4400 - 46sec first day, 6:14 to Sept 6th (37.4sec average)
i7-870/12GB/GT 320 - 29sec first day, 4:09 to Sept 6th (24.9sec average)
i5-650/12GB/Radeon R9-290 - 37 sec first day, 5:42 to Sept 6th (34.2sec average)

Did you do anything in particular to this savegame? Modded in any way?

I have never seen a 7z file and I have nothing to open it with. Perhaps you can upload the actual save file?

Regarding performance, how many threads does this game support?
When I go (trump rising 2018 -> 2033) it starts to take over 30s /day.
From resource monitor I see this game processor usage is 6% while having some spikes up to 39% (8c/16t 2700x)

George has answered that before in a thread. IIRC there are 3 primary +1 per region. They double up when there aren't enough threads. There might be some other small ones (sounds, cursors).

Should it even be full speed?
Camera moved at all from the beginning position?

I ran the given savegame at full speed without moving camera and the results:
1st day: 30 seconds
10 day average: 22 seconds

FPS was mostly stuck at 42 for some reason. sometimes plunged shortly to ~20.

i5 2500
Sapphire Nitro+ (slightly OCd) Rx 470 8gb
dual channel RAM 4+4Gb running at 1333mhz CL7.
full hd

For me the speed seemed slower than average of what I see. Maybe it's because it's in 2026.

Also I tweaked Radeon settings a lot and no matter what I did the speed of days passing as well as FPS is the same. I assume the CPU is the bottleneck.

speaking of which, why is there an FPS cap at 42? Why does it plunge to lower than 42 even when just moving around the map? I'm pretty sure rx 470 is enough to run these graphics at 144hz... Quite annoying when it lags for no apparent reason.

Edit:
In-game settings:
Image

Tests ran on game version 9.1.249.
Windows 10 Build 15063.447 (1703) not updated since early 2017. CPU vulnerabilities are not mitigated in this build. Not sure if that helps the performance any.
Hope this helps!
I am satisfied with the game speed, except for the low FPS and camera lag when looking around the map even with the game paused (it screams unoptimized)

Apparently not. It's probably problem with draw calls being CPU intensive an limited by it.

When I have units enabled and some overlay active, I get 4 FPS at max zoom out with my RX 580 while paused. When I disable units and overlays, I get to about 22 FPS.
