Performance during long haul flights....

Featured Replies

Might as well have a topic on this now since the 777 is out and the MD11 is releasing soon.

Specs are in my bio.

I am doing a flight from KSFO to NZAA in the 777, in real time. The flight has been going for about 12h30. I honestly won't do this real time flying all the time, but I wanted to "stress test" the sim and my system. Luckily, my system seems to be humming along just fine. All temps are within normal limits, HOWEVER, there has been a noticeable degradation in sim performance. I'm not 100% certain why this is though. I do run the updated BING maps plugin, so, even though the flight has been over the water, it may be that the cache is building up fairly rapidly. RAM usage seems stable, with no memory leak eating up available RAM. I run frame gen and have a VRR monitor -- opening the RTSS overlay, i notice there's a stutter that happens in a pattern every 2 seconds or so. The funny thing is, if I enable Lossless Scaling (on top of Frame Generation) the stutter seems to go away. Not sure if it's a frame gen issue. Just curious what others have found doing similar flights.
