Bug ID: 59013
           Summary: Final Fantasy XI Online: Noticeable overall
                    performance regression.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 10.6
          Hardware: x86-64
               URL: http://www.playonline.com/ff11eu/download/media/benchm
                    ark03.html
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: d3d
          Assignee: wine-bugs@list.winehq.org
          Reporter: chiitoo@gentoo.org
   Regression SHA1: 93bfdc6f21a1b1be092b7a7b8e5b1dad0aff8a46
      Distribution: Gentoo
Not sure if this is regression per se, but it looks like after 93bfdc6f21a [1],
at least some applications suffer from lower performance.
For example in certain situations in Final Fantasy XI Online, FPS may drop by
~12 or more from the maximum of ~29.
At 11390796260 [2], or possibly already starting/related at/to ac8591ee3d2 [3],
the commit before that, FPS in the same testing method can be seen dropping by
~5 at most, so that might add some to it.
Before that point, the FPS count would more or less stay around the maximum ~29
(I don't think I've ever seen the Wine debug 'fps' hit 30, which is the
maximum, but I'm not sure if it really hits it on Windows either), with a CPU
use on the executable at around 170-180% (two threads).
After [1], CPU usage will be at the maximum of two threads for the process, and
my CPU fans start working a bit harder on the Ryzen 9 7950X too.
Graphics stack consists of the open amdgpu driver and a Radeon RX 5700 XT.
Unsurprisingly perhaps, these drops can be observed using the related, Final
Fantasy XI Online Benchmark as well.
At 9.0.1 or 9.0 and up for some ways, the benchmark will give me a score over
12000, but after these two points in commits, it will give around 10000.
The first, slight drop happens at around 9.3, but it is much less noticeable,
and I didn't bisect that fully yet.
As a sidey-note, I also saw ~8000 points when not using GCC optimisations
(normally -O2), and ~6000 if additionally running it with wow64-new, but that's
a tale for another time.
Thank you!
