Martial explains the major improvements to memory management in MSFS 2024 SU7 beta and asks the community to test long-haul flights and provide feedback. If you fly long-haul, this is your chance to help the devs evaluate the improvements.
I don’t have any exact numbers comparisons, I just look at frametimes in fpsVR almost constantly, but would just like to say that in most areas in (VR, 9800x3d, 5090, 64gb) and flying GA, this is most probably the best performance I’ve seen. The first build of SU7 was probably equally good though.
Super smooth, EXCEPT when taking off at many (stock) handcrafted airports in PG areas. Here the CPU still gets hammered, doubling frametimes from 9 to 12ms to about 18+, which messes up my 72fps. I feel like these airports didn’t used to perform this badly several releases ago. If this were also optimized somehow, it would be virtually perfect imo.
Yes, I have also a huge drop in FPS at take off and aproches.
One curious thing, that I can not explain is this:
At LEBB taking off from rway 28 I have around 16% less FPS as taking off from rway 10.
Edit:
Same situation happens in LOWI, starting from RWY 26, I get around 16% less FPS than starting RWY 08
SU7 Beta 1.9.12.0
The issue where the aircraft’s movement becomes severely erratic when viewing a multiplayer friend in “Follow Mode” using the drone camera has not been fixed in this version.
