http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35718 --- Comment #49 from Kyle <walmartshopper(a)msn.com> --- With 1.7.13, everything worked great. Then I upgraded to 1.7.16 which caused this stuttering issue, but single threaded rendering performance was still acceptable. Then I upgraded to 1.7.17 and saw the performance drop. So I applied the patch and turned multicore rendering back on. The stuttering problem was fixed, but performance was still low. I will try the wine-multimedia-csmt AUR package which is still at 1.7.15 and see if that restores the performance. When playing on 1.7.17, I had two vbox machines running plus kdevelop and a dozen or so Chromium tabs open. However, I have 32GB of RAM, core i5-2500k, and a GTX 660. I usually had all those same things open when I ran the game before, and it didn't seem to have much impact on performance. Although I guess I should try playing on wine 1.7.17 with nothing else running to be fair. BTW, I always disable kwin compositing before starting the game. Will do more testing when I get a chance and report back. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
