Terrible stutters cured by deleting rolling cache.

[Todd2 2,095]

I couldn't believe the difference after I deleted rolling cache all of my stutters were gone. 

[jarmstro 2,402]

Same. Although I've found that making sure the rolling cache is on a different drive to the one with Windows on it also helps.

Or don't use one at all.

Think this is the best way and therefor you don't have to watch after every update to delete the Rolling Cache and built a new one..

I never had the Rolling Cache set and this is OK for me.

Means i have tried at the beginning of MSFS and had a lot of trouble so i leave it off and i was good to go..

cheers 😉

I wonder why so many still use Rolling Cache despite all the trouble it makes, I have never seen any benefits of using it at all.

Useful if you have a slow internet connection and nice if you fly around and explore a heavy photogrammetry area.

Load times seem quicker when flying from an area where you'be been before.

I do delete and re-create the rolling cache from time to time though.

Data cap.

Like others, I have have never seen the benefits of it and leave it off, from the beginning.  I do understand why those with slower internet connections might get a benefit though.
 

I have never had stuttering on any hardware that I have run this simulator on either, but can’t really credit the cache being off to being a factor in the equation as I have no comparable to measure against.  I’m not surprised to hear that having it off gives a better result though having said all of that.

I have had zero, nada, zilch stutters anywhere since this beast of a system took off. No tweaking required anymore, kinda removes half of the hobby haha! Ive other things to focus on until January and then in the time I normally spend tweaking I will use it to learn a plane in-depth I think.

I think it's true Ian look what happened to RobA, may he enjoy whatever he is up to now.  There is something to be said about your point and for it I can heartily recommend looking for a way to put meaning or purpose into using the sim.  In P3D I used FSCaptain, and now in MSFS I'm using A Pilot's Life v2 along w/ PACX.  APLv2 provides meaning by scoring all of your flights according to the list of criteria captured below and lets you apply for jobs w/ the airline(s) of your choice.  You have to pay attention to score 100 on these and right now my composite is around 97.8 or so.  These sorts of things add a lot for me to keep my head in the game as it were.  I can heartily recommend APLv2 though it takes a little while to accrue airplane licenses and fortunately if you're certified to fly B737 you're good for all in class, etc.  It will improve your flying skills of course as well.

I can imagine your new machine HAS to solve all perf issues because I'm already very close and look forward to picking up AMD 7900x3D or something similar next year.

I’ll check that out in the new year, thanks!

No issues for me since MSFS release. It has several advantages compared to not using it.

Rolling cache has never been an issue on or off for me since release.  Since I recently turned PG off I leave RC off.

I ended up with severe FPS from KJFK to KBOI on the PMDG 737. Rolling cache was already off. I think some of these issues are fairly random and caused by Asobo. I do similar flights as "test" flights with no changes and they seem pretty random to me.
