How much 'stuttering' do you experience in MSFS?

[Noel]

Well, post-update performance has gone somewhat downhill, and by performance I mean liquid smooth stutter free near zero FTV.  I probably shouldn't have but I installed AccuSeason before doing my first flight post-update, so I didn't get a chance to evaluate the update itself.  To make matters worse a Win 10 update I consented to "Install & Shut Down" last night turned out only to be partially installed.  So when I ran MSFS w/ AccuS the first time performance really tanked--by comparison.  Lots of stutters, poor FTV levels.   Once I figured out what happened there I completed the update and now performance was much improved, but not as previous.  Turns out AccuSeasons has a measured impact on MSFS for me that is so significant I had to uninstall and restore default textures.  Back to sterling smooth performance once again.  I certainly enjoyed the looks of the different fall colors but it's not worth the penalty for me.

Yesterday I was running the sim with SU11 and absolutely no issues. Today I'm finding anything with photogrammetry is causing massive stutters. This has to be a server side problem.

Thanks for that heads up about AccuSeasons.  I'd really enjoy a better seasonal look but not at a noticeable performance hit.  If they have a good black friday price I might get it anyways.

pre-su11 was smooth but after update experienced stuttering and load spiking on the cpu.  gfx setting didn't change the behavior.  

cleared the scenery cache and problem went away.

Good luck with it I know others believe it's not creating enough of a penalty but it absolutely does here, and Bijan's did as well staarting maybe a few sim updates back.  Others had reported performance improvements in SU11 but so far not seeing anything significant here but it's a bit early to say for sure as the sim isn't 100% stable server wise perhaps..

What is 'clearing the scenery cache'?  You don't mean DX Shader Cache?  I guess you mean rolling or manual caches?  I deleted and rebuilt the rolling cache already.

yup, the stale rolling cache.
