Last week I ran benchmarks of CachyOS with the BORE scheduler using its "linux-cachyos-bore" kernel option. The results didn't end up being as enticing as anticipated but the developer behind the BORE scheduler commented in the forums that he recently received reports from users experiencing game stuttering while using BORE that was attributed to CachyOS' default use of Ananicy-Cpp. So over the weekend I did another CachyOS BORE run without that CachyOS default...
This report is a typical benchmark follow-up, addressing an immediate technical issue identified in previous testing.
It is important for users of specific Linux distributions and kernel schedulers but holds no broader strategic significance.
This clarifies a specific software interaction, potentially leading to minor performance improvements for a niche user base.
Users of CachyOS BORE might experience better gaming performance by disabling Ananicy-Cpp.
The developers of BORE or CachyOS might issue updates or guidance based on these findings.
No significant third-order consequences are apparent from this specific software interaction.
