processaffinitymask question

[David198502]

hey guys!i wonder which value is the best in the conf.ini file for me considering the processaffinitymask section.
i have a dual core processor.

Put 2

Since I saw this question raised again, somebody posted this below, I kept his text but did not keep his name (sorry):


Look there ProcessAffinityMask option in section [rts]
Remove the sign ; in front of him.

And exposes its value in accordance with the number of cores a processor, namely:
2 cores - 3
3 core - 7
4 cores - 15
6 cores - 63
8 cores - 255

In my case (Core i5-750) 4 core - put 15. Conclusion: The uniform loading of all cores. In a game where everything is - friezes are but minor

Affinity mask settings

=1 - core 0
=2 - core 1
=3 - core 0+1
=4 - core 2
=5 - core 0+2
=6 - core 1+2
=7 - core 0+1+2
=8 - core 3
=9 - core 0 + 3
=10 - core 1 + 3
=11 - core 0 + 2 + 3
=12 - core 2 + 3
=13 - core 0 + 2 + 3
=14 - core 1 + 2 + 3
=15 - core 0 + 1 + 2 + 3

Thanks! Testing now...

[SEE]

Luthiers Technical FAQ states that the value 3 = 3rd core not 1 and 2.

Who is correct or have I misunderstood something...

I suppose I could just try it and see what happens.

I got mine set to =1, then i just run task manager in game, and set afinity on the launcher process, uncheck Core 0 and leave Core 1 running it Runs good for me

Doesn´t work!

Hi
I think this is the thread you could be looking for ?

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...mation+windows

[JG5_emil]

according to that thread it says

I7s:

SET processAffinityMask "85"


I have an I7 4 core with 8 hyperthreads....should my entry in the config file look like this?

;ProcessAffinityMask=;

;ProcessAffinityMask=85

or this?

ProcessAffinityMask=85

ProcessAffinityMask=85

; is a command to ignore what's on the line after. Reads as comment.

We did unload a bunch more stuff into other cores already though. It will obviously only lead to performance improvement if you have more than two cores, and if you haven't manually set your processaffinity in the conf.ini.

From the above quote I would imagine it is best to leave this setting commented out or risk performance issues
