P3DCoreAffinity new v5.3 settings

[kevinfirth]

This is with an i9 10850K@5Ghz
NGXu, default airport, default weather, no traffic, same settings, not GPu limited, vsync off, unlimited

So, I tried:

[JOBSCHEDULER]
AffinityMask=349525
P3DCoreAffinityMask=21845
MainThreadScheduler=0
RenderThreadScheduler=2
FrameWorkerThreadScheduler=4

52fps

Then:

[JOBSCHEDULER]
AffinityMask=21845
P3DCoreAffinityMask=21845
MainThreadScheduler=0
RenderThreadScheduler=2
FrameWorkerThreadScheduler=4

52fps

I wonder if anyone can help identify where I may not be using these settings correctly please?

Noticed this too... can anyone explain in laymens terms what we should be changing here- I notice P3D always runs at 100% on core 0 (I have an i7 6700k) and am wondering how I balance the load on all cores. Do we change all the values to 255 or just the affinity mask?

Just delete that section in the p3d.cfg and the sim will use all cpu co.

Hi
For having the value of the AffinityMask, you can use the Windows Calculator
First select Programmer Mode / BIN
Type as many 1 as there are cores
See DEC for having the result
P3Dv5.3 do it automatically.
