March 31, 20224 yr Im just curios to know how many people use rolling chache in MSFS 2020, and if there is actually a benefit to using it seems to be a grey area this one. Edited March 31, 20224 yr by lewislef
March 31, 20224 yr I use a 16GB rolling cache. Comcast in eastern Tennessee has a data cap and I believe this cache helps me keep under the limit. At least I've stopped receiving the "you've used 75% of your data" messages now. I also have 3 1TB SSDs so space is not a problem. -J 13700KF | RTX 4090 @ 1440 | 64GB DDR5 | 2 x 1TB SSDs | 1TB M.2 NVMe
March 31, 20224 yr Never use it, don't need it. Alienware Aurora R11, 32 GB ram, Intel i7-10700F, GeForce RTX 2080 Super, Ultra graphics settings
March 31, 20224 yr As above, never used it since moving to FTTP, also don't see any morphing since either. AMD Ryzen 7 5800x3d, MSI X570 Pro, 32 gb DDR4 3600 ram, Gigabyte 6800 16gb GPU, 1x 2tb Samsung NvMe , 1x 2tb Sabrent NvME, 1x Crucial 4tb Nvme M2 Drive
March 31, 20224 yr Have run for extended periods with and without a rolling cache and caches of different sizes. I've noticed little if any difference and chose to run without a cache as a result. Where a cache may help is for those with slower internet connections and data caps. Maybe some lower end systems could benefit, but I've not seen any evidence of this.

March 31, 20224 yr I use it (Around 10gb). I see a benefit. I also make sure to delete and recreate the file after every major update however.

March 31, 20224 yr The rolling cache is essential with a 10Mbps internet connection. (the joys of limited choice of rural ISP. We will update our technology any day now) I use a 30GB cache. First flight over an area will show highly variable frame rate and stutters. Second flight will be much more consistent frame rate and network monitor shows no internet access.

The typical reported ping to MS servers is 36 to 44ms. I have tried it with and without.. Ill keep it on to at least ensure there is a data buffer while flying and im not at the mercy of any transfer fluctuations mid flight ..which would probably result in ... you guessed it .. a frametime spike.

March 31, 20224 yr Always used it until recent. Dont notice the difference. I9-14900K, Gigabyte B760 Aorus Elite AX, RTX 4080, 32 ram.1 tb nvme M.2 SSD, MSFS 2020 on 2 tb nvme m.2 SSD
March 31, 20224 yr I have used it before but not using it now. I have a very fast internet connection, with only myself and one other person in the household, with no data cap, so for me, there were not many benefits of using it.

March 31, 20224 yr I can't see any benefit using it on my computer and internet connection. Edited March 31, 20224 yr by Ixoye System: I ASRock X670E | AMD 7800X3D | 64Gb DDR5 6000 | RTX 4090 | 2TB NVMe | Seasonic Vertex 1000W I LG Ultra Gear 34 UW I
