Performance Metrics causes speed hit in some games
0%
Description
Hi all,
Between version 3.5_491 and 3.5_513 e.g. Mario Kart starts to lag in the Character Menu and after starting the game it is little bit slower as before this versions.
So here are the Numbers:
491--> ef7083d78cdeb9eb8881a0d1593164ad1dd04225
513--> 008fdc73106a142212fc5cd4481d13535103b954
So hope this helps.
I think the problem comes from. Rev 513--> 008fdc73106a: Commands:
Slightly (~7%) decreases performance when performance metrics are used. (what is better, one game works and many other laggs)
Lagging means only 3FPS instead of 50 or 25.
See you.

Someone who cares about performance should probably add an option for perf queries.

This is not a question about performance if you have 3fps since these version.
Sorry.

I'd rather keep that assumption out of the title until someone proves that the game doesn't use the perf query results at all.

Please test and check if the performance regression is gone.

Merged to master. Only SMS has Perfqueries enabled. Kostamarino, if you know of any other game that might require that, please edit the gameini (see SMS gameinis for example). I think Timesplitters 3 might need it, but I don't have the game to test.

Timesplitters future perfect doesn't seem to need it with the latest master. If i remember correctly when neobrain implemented Perfqueries for dx11, the issue with the sun lighting through objects was fixed even for backends that it wasn't implemented yet (dx9). So my 2 cents about it is that while it was fixed by the Perfqueries branch, Timesplitters future perfect was basically fixed by the videocommon (or other universal changes) introduced in that branch and not by perfqueries itself. So even if it is disabled with the latest master it seems to work fine without it.
