Those mysterious one-second-stutters....

[Soulflight 91]

So, after an hour or something on MSFS, my system tends to get the infamous 1-second-stutter, regardless of load, settings, traffic, scenery, data on/off, or plane. It is clearly visible on the FPS graph in dev mode (enjoy beautiful moonlit annushka btw):

 

Now i managed to balance my settings pretty well, even though i am still running a weak GTX970 GPU, usually i am between 20 and 40 FPS in all scenarios. My CPU is a ryzen 5600X and I have 32GB of RAM installed on Windows 11.

So far i looked into: 1. Data settings, i switched them on and off with no change after reading that streaming causes this type of issue. 2. Temperatures of CPU, which are normal, around 50 Degrees under load. Also, my CPU only shows around 25% load, single core usage is 40% max. 3. Various graphics settings with no change. 4. background programs, which was only sky4sim, no change after closing it.

The only solution that works is restarting MSFS. Any Tips?

Try to delete rolling cache, when turning on rolling cache make sure to download the data outside of the default path. I have mine set at 40GB and to download to my D drive while my sim is installed on C drive. Delete Nvidia cache files also:

I'm not sure if this will help you in anyway, but its worth a try.

Are you using the Steam or Store version?

Its not because of FSUIPC is it....

I had this after SU12 with FSUICP. There's an update for that.

Thanks in advance!

Not yet, i had my rolling cache deactivated because it was recommended to me to do so. Yesterday I set it to 16GB again and will do some testing to see if stutters are still there. it seems to be connected to geographical change...like loading a new area somewhere else after you flew in one area.

I deleted my sceneryindexes folder as well as Simobjects folder in the MSFS directory. So far so good, stutters have improved and general performance has also improved.

Why do you not answer the question about Steam or Store version? Or: did you check, that the stutters are not due to webhelper.exe when using the steam version?
