optimization
12 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe optimization of the software is criticized for its high performance footprint, particularly when using PlayClaw 6, which results in significant frame drops and severe frametime spikes, negatively impacting gameplay and video editing. In contrast, OBS Studio maintains a stable performance, making it a more reliable choice for users prioritizing quality and efficiency. Overall, the performance impact of the software is deemed substantial, making it hard to recommend over alternatives like OBS.
“Impact on performance is minimal, one of the lowest I've seen.”
“Arbitrary overlays with webpages, windows from other displays (or the same display if your game is borderless), performance counters, recording status, etc. Recording status is especially useful, no need to alt-tab and verify it's actually recording.”
“The performance footprint is much, much higher. KF2 easily maintains 120 fps with OBS Studio while recording at 120 fps, but PlayClaw 6 introduces a noticeable performance hit. The 99th percentile fps dropped to 110-115, with severe frametime spikes (6 whole frames, as reported by PlayClaw 6 itself, that's a 50 millisecond hang - very bad even if you're targeting 60 fps).”
“This means very poor performance in video editing software, unless you want to reencode the entire recording (which I don't).”
“With all the aforementioned issues, it's very hard to recommend this over OBS, unless you value convenience over quality and performance, and don't have a second display.”
