      @jip said in CPU is showing high in lobby:

      @luke113 can you share you preference file? The data for the improved CPU benchmark is being gathered in there. This is for example the data of Resistance:

      I tried to make it an attachment, but the site doesn't accept its format. I could paste the whole script here but I'm not sure if you want to read all 2136 lines.

      Here are the first 39 lines

      PreGameData = {
          CurrentMapDir = '/maps/scmp_021',
          IconReplacements = { }
      }
      Options = {
          Log = {
              Debug = false,
              Warn = false,
              Info = false,
              Custom = false,
              Error = false,
              Filter = '*debug:'
          }
      }
      CPUBenchmark = 365
      options_overrides = {
          shadow_quality = {
              default = 1,
              custom = {
                  states = {
                      {
                          text = '<LOC _Off>',
                          key = 0
                      },
                      {
                          text = '<LOC _Low>',
                          key = 1
                      },
                      {
                          text = '<LOC _Medium>',
                          key = 2
                      },
                      {
                          text = '<LOC _High>',
                          key = 3
                      }
                  }
              }
          },
      

      It seems a little different than yours.

        You can use https://pastebin.com/ as well to share the content of the whole file.

          As Magge points out, you can use pastebin. Note that I only copied one part of the preference file (the one with the performance statistics in it). You can find it by looking for PerformanceTrackingV2. Either how, sharing the entire preference file works too. And I highly encourage other people to do so too - the more data the merrier!

                  }
              }
              

              The curve roughly matches mine, so the CPU score (of 350+) is (very) inaccurate for you. We'll be replacing the old cpu score with this new system in the next developers patch, that should be somewhere in a month from now!

                I'll hopefully post mine tonight for you as my 12-year-old computer gets a score of 240 but I often is not the slowest computer and runs probably around the score of 200

                    Your score seems to be inaccurate too, this is the amount of units that your computer can manage:

                            { // +0
                                Samples = 231,
                                UnitCount = {
                                    Min = 1621,
                                    Max = 2209
                                }
                            },
                    (...)
                            { // +2
                                Samples = 281,
                                UnitCount = {
                                    Min = 1598.7399902344,
                                    Max = 3131.259765625
                                }
                            },
                    

                    In comparison, this is mine:

                            { // +0
                                Samples = 7297,
                                UnitCount = {
                                    Min = 3258.9602050781,
                                    Max = 5023.5688476563
                                }
                            },
                    

                    The average map (Gap, Setons, generated, etc) has more than 2.4 - 3.0K units. You may not be the slowest, but you're still likely to slow down games. There also appears to be some throttling going on.

                    A work of art is never finished, merely abandoned

                      The only times I get really slow(this is before your s upgrades) is big long dual gap game that might go to -1 or -2, and big survival games. I might run a replay of a big survival and see how many units.

                      Is the log saying 2.2k units?

                          @luke113 said in CPU is showing high in lobby:

                          It's an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz

                          equally a 2.6GHz laptop processor probably does get a 365 cpu score, what with laptops bad heat sinking and what not

                            @luke113 open game.prefs file. Find a string with CPU test number. Enter any amount you want instead. Live happy.
