If your sim is already smooth I dont think I'd mess with one. I used the antilag limiter until it started giving me dll errors with the ngx so I removed it and can't perceive any difference.The way I understand it, a lot of the perceived stutters are wide fluctuations in framerates & the idea is to use an external limiter to keep frames at a steady rate. Eg... If you get 25-50 unlimited then you'd set a limiter at 30, which keeps the rate fairly constant by removing most of the jumps/dips.So that's why I wouldn't use one if you're already smooth. As always, no 2 systems are alike and your mileage may vary.
