[poll] TES Skyrim 0.201 vs 0.202 memory manager

I don't understand is version 0.202 work better by performance, stuttering, CTDs and freezing, compared to 0.201. Some users reports better results, others much worse. Vote please.

WARNING! If you for example not vote "0.202 less stuttering", this means that 0.201 have less stuttering.
Of course ReduceSystemMemoryUsage=true and EnableUnsafeMemoryHacks=false (ReservedMemorySizeMb better 512 mb or less).

Re: [poll] TES Skyrim 0.201 vs 0.202 memory manager

Complicated.

Freezed less in 0.202 early than in 0.201 test (at the place I told you, only a few second freeze, not a unfinished).
With last 0.201, CTDed instead of freezed, in the same place as 0.201 test.

Voted though.

Re: [poll] TES Skyrim 0.201 vs 0.202 memory manager

So I knowi haven't really posted here much really just lurk and use the files. I can see though that you are having a hard time and only getting data from same like four or five people. Here is what I noticed.
.201 I had better overall performance than previous binaries however I had an occasional 5 second freeze, after which the game would return to normal performance and some stuttering when outside and turning.
.202 Less stuttering but freezes were more common and load times nearly doubled. Otherwise FPS was higher overall than .201

Re: [poll] TES Skyrim 0.201 vs 0.202 memory manager

0.202 is MUCH better by all means on my side.
Tested with uGrids = 5 and uGrids= 7, ReservedMb 512, 768 and 1024 (sorry Boris ;) ).
Tested with 3GB and 4GB VRAM cards.
Lot less stuttering in all cases. Perfect stability.
As often said, my settings in game and in ENB are mercyless.
Game runs very, very smooth.

Re: [poll] TES Skyrim 0.201 vs 0.202 memory manager

Just by moving to the 0.202 dll I got an extra 6-10 fps. I'm using a custom ENB initially based off Project ENB but with SweetFX and adapted to new ENB standards. I have the same stuttering I had with previous versions of ENB but only on initial texture loads for example when the game has just loaded and I spin my character around.

V.202 works much better on all counts for me. It's not even comparable to V.201 it's so much smoother.

Re: [poll] TES Skyrim 0.201 vs 0.202 memory manager

I get slightly worse stutter with .202 and fps drops a little in tighter areas, maybe 3?

These were relatively quick tests performed in a performance heavy area.

No crashes or freezes though, but as I said, fast test. Will report back if anything new comes up.

Edit: played a bit more, with 201 in one area I dropped down to 8fps for a few seconds, I thought the game was frozen but it eventually managed to climb back up.

installed 202 in this same spot and the stutter was significantly less.

As far as average fps goes, it was the same, but 202 seemed to run smoother regardless.

Contrary to my first post I know.

with 0.202 my framerates would drop to and stay at around 7 FPS for a while.

Re: [poll] TES Skyrim 0.201 vs 0.202 memory manager

my new ranking 0.204 > 0.202 > 0.201

first impression from my side, compared to 0.202:
0.204: no freezes, similar stability (1 CTD during stress test, fast run through city and forest after 15min), similar stuttering when turning around, perceived better FPS in cities or heavy grassy areas, smoothest gameplay so far.

PS: i'm using uGrids 7
