<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hello Erik,<br>
<br>
Thank you for your interest about my laggy Tera sessions. I'd like
to ask you something though:<br>
What exactly you mean by "able" when pvp-ing? Do you use maxed-out
settings?<br>
Also, 80%-85% of the GTX 970 would be more than enough for
maxed-out settings and full pvp time.<br>
I hope I can get an 80% of my GTX 980, too. :/<br>
<br>
I just tried a passed-through for my second NIC, and as for a
first glimpse, I think performance has been really, no wait, I
mean REALLY, boosted. Though, not even close to what my GTX 980 is
made to offer:<br>
<br>
When I'm on native hardware (dual booted windows 10), I get about
80fps (I think that's capped) on areas with few players. On FC
(pvp battleground) I get about 35fps-40fps.<br>
<br>
When I'm on the VM, I get about 25fps-35fps on areas with few
players. On FC I get 8fps-10fps (hardly playable, almost
unplayable - unless you know what's gonna happen on the next frame
:p ).<br>
<br>
<br>
So, the change from virtual network to a passed-through NIC,
improved things to a point of being hardly playable.<br>
<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
George<br>

<div>I think the best benchmark would be the
in-game ones. Since I cannot try Tera (region
restricted), what are the other games that you
play? Hopefully I can try to benchmark that on
my VM and start from there. You can also try the
Unigiene Valley benchmark.</div>

<div>My host has an ASRock Z87 Extreme6 with Intel

Override patch, currently at kernel 4.1.2-lts

any cores on the host and give all the cores the
VM (exposed as 8 vcpus with topology 1 socket, 4

<div>It's the same thing, either by
adding them with qemuarguments, or
with the wrapper.<br>
<br>
The thing is to use the hyper-v
functions. That's what the hyper-v
vendor-id patch has given to us. The
ability of hidding the hyper-v
functions from nvidia GPUs so that
we can use them!<br>
<br>
Also, I've tried with a null name
for the vendor-id, I got the same
performance.<br>
<br>
The nvidia drivers I'm currently
using are 358.50<br>

Moreover, could you suggest me a
nice software to test the VM's
performance in general? I don't
really like passmark.

<div>Hello Eddie,<br>
<br>
Thanks for answering,
though:<br>
<br>
What you suggest me to
do, I've already done
it with this way:<br>
<br>
<font color="#000000"><span><tt>/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64.hv</tt><tt>:</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>#!/bin/sh</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>exec
/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64
`echo "\$@" | \</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>sed
's|hv_time|hv_time,hv_vendor_id=GoobyPLS|g'</tt></span><tt><br>
<br>
<br>
and by changing
the emulator qemu
to this line:<br>
<br>
<</tt></font><font
color="#000000"><tt>emulator>/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64.hv</emulator></tt><tt><br>
</tt></font><br>
I'm just giving the ID
"GoobyPLS" to the
vendor. I'll try
without a vendor name
to see if it changes
anything.<br>
<br>
Also, I'm using the
qemu git version
"r41983.g3a958f5" so
it already contains
the patch that helps
us use the lines
above.

provided about
2% boost in
GPU
performance.
No change in
RAM or CPU
tests. I've
tested with
the passmark</tt><tt>.</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>2) I
tried using
the
emulatorpin
method Alex
says on a mail
here on </tt><tt>vfio-users</tt><tt>,
but I didn't
notice any
changed in GPU
performance. I
didn't test it
on the CPU
side though.</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>3)
The main
problem of the
performance
lack is that a
specific game
that I've been
playing isn't
quite
playable. That
game has been
mentioned
before here on
the list, it's
Tera (european
version
(gameforge),
although
american
version</tt><tt>(enmasse)
has exactly
the same
performance).</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>4)
Every othe</tt><tt>r
game I managed
to play is
quite
playable,
though I
haven't tested
them to see if
they run on
native speeds.</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>I'd
really want
some help on
this matter, I
really want to
make my server
run this VM
with the
nvidia GPU. I
hate dual
booting
Windows </tt><tt>>_></tt><tt><br>
