Dota 2 Vulkan vs. OpenGL Performance Redux

Poor bridgman has to post everything 5 times before he actually gets anything through the spam filter.

Between the spam filter and answering the same question dozens of times it's not surprising my post count is high. If you exclude those factors I probably only have about 300 unique posts

That sounds a lot like what a spam bot would do.

True. Maybe we're stuck in that unhappy place where the spam filter is smart enough to recognize repetitive posts from a single user but not smart enough to realize those posts are responses to repetitive questions from a variety of users.

The same I noticed. Probably the game is running the main loop on a single thread, maybe another thread runs the rendering and other ancillary minor threads do some other less complicate stuff.

Yeah, that's what I thought.
