    What you are missing about Process Lasso is what most of us use it for. Instead of trying to modify your games, you should be using it to prevent other background processes from "running wild." This is where the program shines. It was never designed to be the "game fixer" it was designed to prevent processes from going crazy in the background. Using it this way, I see processes that it has paused, it doesn't cause any issues in my gaming (I game a lot), and everything stays smooth and responsive at all times.

      Not a single non virus process should ever start "running wild" in the "background".
      And if you really need to restrict a process, use the windows eco mode or just limit it to a single thread.

      @@Waldherz If you claim to actually use Windows and say that processes don't run wild, you are trolling. Those of us that have been here since Windows was something we started from the command prompt in MS-Dos know that there have always been issues with this. Programs leak memory, they crash and take the system down, they randomly decide to do what they want when they want, etc. I am more than capable of managing Windows without Process Lasso, but I find it to be convenient in what it does.
      My computers are built in house to my specifications, and I can count the number of blue screens I've had in the last couple of years on 1 hand. So I would ask you not to come at me like I don't know how to manage my systems. Computers are tools, as are the programs we run on them, and when we find a tool that makes the job easier so be it.

    The reason why process lasso doesn’t work with Intels architecture is the thread director that handles it underneath. That and process lasso is manual rather than a soft affinity. Process lasso works great for AMD chips cause the thread director doesn’t get in the way. It basically confuses the scheduling and latency. APO is basically process lasso from the way of what we are trying to do. But with intel you can’t tune it manually. You have to buy an entire new Chip and PAINFULLY wait for them to release apps for it.

      I'm on a 7600, and empirically I felt a slight-but-noticeable increase in input delay with Lasso. I play fighting games at a pretty high level, and I would notice myself messing up muscle-memory timings by doing the inputs too late. Force-disabling Lasso stopped that weird feeling.
      Realistically, it's probably dependent on the application though.

      It's made a nice difference in snappiness on my 5900x CPU.
      Plus SOME games prefer to run on CCD0 only, like the latest Forza Motorsports. I can a few fps by limiting it to just CCD0 (6c/12t) instead of all 12c/24t. I also do some tweaking and move a lot of apps onto cores 10 and 11, the lowest performing ones, and have that set in a gaming profile. So, that's 2c/4t for Steam, EA App, etc. to all run on instead of using Core 0.
      Sure, the CPU is powerful enough and my GPU isn't the greatest (a 6700XT 12GB) to notice 20fps+ boosts, but I do get boosts in the right games.
      And with Project Lasso running, just letting it do its normal optimizing, everything truly is FAR snappier. Opening browsers, going through Radeon Software.. just all the little things like that.
      I like the app. It gives me control over my CPU, which I can do with task manager, but it saves the settings so I don't have to redo them every time. Plus I can make profiles which is great. One for normal usage (browsing the web/watching RUclips/etc.) vs gaming.

    I use Process Lasso for various reasons besides gaming, but recently I ran a benchmark on Guardians of the Galaxy to see if it did anything that was consistently noticeable in results, and it did.
    I don't do any of the E-core adjusting, the only option I turn on in Process Lasso is the Performance Mode/Bitsum Highest Performance Mode, and that does make a difference in CPU utilization. My FPS was essentially the same, but my CPU Max rendering time in (ms) was 36.1ms without Process Lasso being used, and then 20.2ms with it on.
    I want to do another test when I get a chance and use a more detailed stats showing so as to see what exactly is going on. It's possible frametimes may be better overall with it on, or at least better in certain circumstances/games.

    Premise: I am not a process lasso user, I am watching this video because I wanted to know more about the program and maybe consider using it. Unfortunately this video shows nothing.
    1. All you did with process lasso is changing cpu affinity (in this case the program selected p-cores and deselected e-cores automatically) something you can do from the stock task manager manually selecting the process and then selecting the cores you want.
    2. Process lasso has way more features than cpu affinity (that, again, it's something you can do from stock task manager, it's not a feature it's just a matter of comfort to have everything in one software).
    3. Some people are pointing out that the recent intel architecture doesn't work well with setting cpu affinity like you did.

    You tested a Ryzen 7950x riiiight? Process lasso works better on Ryzen NOT intel I have been doing tests on it since Zen2. And did some tests on Zen3 and use it on Zen4 RN. Zen3 and Zen4 is most noticable. It works because Ryzen Infinity fabric has a latency penalty between CCDs. Removing that fabric from the game improves performance. I also use my 2nd CCD to stream on Twitch so separating the 2 CCDs is beneficial so one Program Doesnt get Slowdown. Kinda like having 2 CPUs in one lol. Intel is Different Design. The way the cores communicate is different. But it does Work best on AMD. So if you don't stream and were to assign alot of the windows background processes to CCD2 and the game to CCD1 you actually get more FPS on AMD. The games that don't get as much improvement are the ones that need more cache cause removing the 2nd CCD halves your CPU cache tecnically.

    Thank you for your efforts in actually testing the software. To reveal there was no uplift using the software vs without is immensely helpful.
    Rather than post how this software so amazing, without actual benchmarks, I would welcome anyone else to do the same and see if their findings are similar. I have used PL for a short time and can say that there was less issues in terms of frame time and stuttering. However, the one reason why I stopped using PL is because it lowered my PCore turbo clocks, and matched it to the ECore clocks. I would reboot my system, and the turbo clocks would load in, but as soon as PL launches, it removes the turbo clocks. I may or may not have tweaked some setting that prevents this, but that is behavior I didn't expect.
    Once I uninstalled the software, the turbo clocks came back.

Far Cry 3 and 4 just hover around the 70 fps range on my rtx 3080 and Ryzen 5950x and Wolfenstein 2009 just wont launch at all unless I do an obscure command line argument that apparently deals with CPU affinity. Changing the CPU affinity also helps with games like The Witcher 2 apparently. I would love a video testing out old games that have problems on new hardware with this program.

One annoying issue I have is every few seconds, I get CPU bound, and that causes stuttering. I downloaded the process lasso trial and gave everything low priority and both iRacing and virtual desktop high-also some seasonings for higher performance. There is a clear improvement in the headroom and much less stuttering.
    I believe process lasso works better when you have a good headroom. Meani g a CPU with many cores.
    All your benchmark is based on the cpu with e-cores. It seems 13th and 14th gen are without any headroom and trying to make it faster slows it down. My next CPU will be AMD for sure unless Intel do something soon.

    I have a 7950x3D now. Probably the processor that Lasso could benefit the most from my understanding. Truth is though, it just isn't needed. When the processor first launched and drivers where not the greatest, and it was fairly beneficial. Now all process loads go to the normal cores unless it needs more than 8 cores and 8 threads. It will ramp up the other V-cache cores if needed or if I boot up a game or manually tell it to use the V-cache cores first with Gamebar. Once you assign a process to the V-cache it will stay that way until you tell it otherwise through gamebar.
    7950x3D works fantastic without Lasso now that the drivers have been fixed, and I haven't found a use case for it anymore.
    Edit: I will tell you this Last of Us will eat through more than the normal 8 cores 8 threads, which may be why disabling the E cores has such an effect. It is one of the few games where more cores can mean better frames iirc.

For now I have set the non Vcache chiplet to 5050 max so that the system will always use the VCache chiplet first, and it removes the brief spikes downward in games.

    Are you using any of the other features from Process Lasso or Bitsum, ie the power management stuff?

Process lasso can help with single core performance biased titles (such as tarkov) *IF* your AMD cpu is a little older. the newer ones (i upgraded recently) have a lot better single core performance in general stock out de box so its not really needed. Oh and the bitsum power plan, probalance etc caused me weird situational stutters (flicking too fast, 180's and scoping in) but when i changed back to the regular high performance option and no probalance etc the stutters dissapeared. I assume this is subjective though as every setup is different and will have different qwerks but thats my two cents.

    I'll be honest this is the first time I've heard people recommending Process Lasso for a performance boost, as if they are living under a rock. I use Process Lasso for a different reason for better hardware sleep control, idle power consumption control and seeing activities of left overs from potential bloat applications like Anti Cheats, anti tampering tools, etc.
    But I didn't get to own a RYZEN 3000 CPU so that may have been "right" for them considering that ZEN2 had bad schedulers for early Windows 10 builds at some point. From Ryzen 5 2600 for 6 years jumping to Ryzen 5 5900X then downgrading to 5600 non X.
    I've also heard similar sentiment from people using modern CPUs whether its Intel or AMD that you do not need Process Lasso to boost FPS. Still the tool has its use if you want its other functions especially in security reasons.

    It's not going to help when you have a lot of CPU headroom available. If you're at the limits of your hardware, it definitely helps to prioritize the game you're running to reduce stuttering and frame drops.
    This has helped me keep a 4690k/gtx970 system going, with quite a bit of manual configuration and lowering priority of unimportant processes. Without it, I can't watch a stream/YT video and play certain games without one or the other stuttering. Some of this can be done in task manager, but that is not persistent through a reboot, while Process Lasso will automatically apply my configuration and allows for much more advanced tweaking.
    I spent a lot of time figuring out what works best for this system over the years, YMMV. I can't imagine it being nearly as useful for higher end, current-gen CPUs. Priority settings have been much more important for me than affinity. It's not always a "push button, get performance" type of software, as much as they'd like you to believe that. It can be incredibly useful, depending on the system and configuration.

    Is it fine to just use this program to permanently set priorities and disabling cores than using any of that "performance mode" and "probalance" bs

    I have a feeling this program is interfering with the Memory Reference Instruction by eliminating both AMD'S,and INTELS own set Instruction utilizing cores. I would definitely try the same program with non E/P core on Intel and likewise to deduce the issue here. Also I would think higher end R.A.M. Cards could make up for that drop with a good CL. I really loved this video Brother, as it once again proves that we should never go on "hearsay". Windows has alot of work to do

  • @glock888

    "its unclear why are some games behaving like there" because many of modern games at launch check what cpu you have and how many cores and save it in temporary settings(usually documents like Call of duty) and while in middle of game that launched with E cores you forcefully not allow it to use by 3rd party program while game still assume you have them enabled

  • @mr.burner8797
    @mr.burner8797 8 месяцев назад +4

    Always enable one E core per cluster so that they can utilise the cache entirely. Atleast that's what the Intel PBO thing seems to be doing.

    • @Frozoken
      @Frozoken 8 месяцев назад

      yup and core to core latency is massively better when the ecores are talking to different clusters. You can also see thread director load up different clusters first too, so they know this ofc and I think APO was actually leveraging them to a greater extent like this being essentially an additobal 4 rocket lakeish ipc cores that can pick up some work when needed. Yes the ecores do have much higher ipc alone in case u were wondering because that l2 bandwidth is also shared among the 4 cores too.

  • @miniNinja027

    CPU affinity is not very consistent approach, CPU sets in process Lasso is better as it does not prohibit the CPU to what cores to use explicitly more just gives the process a hint on what to use, but will still allow the CPU to direct it. Which I guess is where the lag is coming from when setting CPU affinity manually alongside any other solution by Intel or AMD under the hood.

    • @miniNinja027

  • @nadtz
    @nadtz 8 месяцев назад

    So Intel isn't just saying there is more going on under the hood with APO than simply forcing apps to run on P cores, I guess it makes sense given the difference between intel's hybrid architecture + thread director vs. AMD's chiplet implementation. Makes me wonder if games are optimized at all to use thread director in the first place and how much of a difference Windows 10 vs. 11 makes.

    • @Frozoken
      @Frozoken 8 месяцев назад

      Ofc they are that's why it's so limited. Apo is good at leveraging the ecores for games actually when they're needed that's why the uplift is so large. If you weren't aware when ecores are talking to different clusters their latency is only like 20% worse than pcore to pcore. That and then they can get all the l2 cache capacity and bandwidth to themselves making them significantly higher ipc when only one of each cluster is being used.

    Tbh, I've been using Process Lasso on most of my rigs, (including the ROG Ally), and I don't really FW the settings and just leave them at default. It fixes some of the weird issues that I have on some of my games, (especially games that stutter or have random fps drops for no reason, like Persona 5 Royal), and doesn't really affect the other games in my library.
    EDIT: I exclusively use AMD CPUs, so that's probably why it works super well for me.

  • @dethskullcrusher

    I manually asign all windows applications to the E-cores and manually assign all P-Cores to my games, haven't seen numbers like yours to be honest, most games run about the same without plasso, but never a huge regression like you show, some games like Starfield run the same but with slower loads because of less available threads so i leave that game alone. But in all honesty the best idea is to assign all P-cores without the HT part to the games that find a benefit from it (most Single Threaded games) and leave multy threaded games on default.

    This is more likely somewhat subjective to Intel architecture. I'm using on AMD 7950x3D and it is amazing overall. It's not the best but does it's job for what it is intended and works in help of xbox solution provided by AMD. I for one tested with and without it and numbers are better with Process Lasso on for my use case and with the settings that I've done for my specific need (development, gaming and content consumption).

    The only time I saw Process Lasso done any good is on older games and systems. And I am talking like Battlefield 2 type of games. Basically the games that isn't quite optimized for the OS and some older gen system that help with scheduling of the CPU. On older system (older HP laptop with like old AMD CPU GPU combo) I remembered Stalker Anomaly (basically one - two core DX 8 to DX 11 game) taking the same most powerful CPU which is also taken up by other background tasks. I think Windows Game mode and other optimizations came along the way with Windows 10 and the improvement of Hardware just neglect the need for Process Lasso.

  • @longjohn526

    I tried Lasso on Witcher 3 Next Gen to see if it would help with it's poor CPU threading which kills Ray Tracing performance. I didn't really see any gains in performance that couldn't also be attributed to run to run variance and margin of error. Any gain was virtually imperceptible in game play and certainly not worth having to put up with that stupid nag screen and nor worth paying good money to get rid of the nag. I tried it on a few other games and got essentially the same results. My system is 5800X, 32 GB 3600 dual rank DDR and a 4070 Ti @ 1440p.
    Process Lasso is really designed for optimizing Servers not gaming and it does work very well for optimizing servers in the right hands.

    Hey Danny Awesome Video Man! I still watch all of your content, and really enjoyed this one. I wanted to ask, in case anyone else doesn't, if you would like to do the same test methodology but on a Ryzen 7000 Based System? I used to use Process Lasso back in 2000 and 3000 series Ryzen Days, but stopped using it for 5000 and 7000 series, and am interested to see if you observe a benefit from using Process Lasso on a newer dual Chiplet based CPU from AMD.
    Anyways, thanks for the awesome content as always!

    If I get it right, Intel has made 14th gen exclusivity performance boost by some HW locked optimizations, while 14th gen cpus share same cores with 13th/12th.
    Then some 3rd party made attempt to enable that performance boost on 12th and 13th gen cpus, showing boost on just 2 selected titles, because they found out those games favour certain settings and use probably some less used coding, thread ordering etc, idk).
    But that P. L. app affects negatively all other commonly coded games.
    Let's call the app with fitting name; Project -l-asso😅.
    Keep doing well. Merry Christmas.
