I have 2 Computers with identical hardware running FreeBSD 7-STABLE, I play World of Warcraft quite a bit. my FPS is at best 120fps (this is out away from a city and your view is mostly toward the ground or sky playing I would say that the fps stays mostly above 50fps servral times spiking to 90+ fps depending on viewpoints etc. when I am in a city and there are lots of people I will see 25-40fps, I will say that it is rare if ever that fps falls below 25. In my experience we are getting about 70 -75% of the performance compare to native windows xp. but even that isn't apples and oranges because in FreeBSD we use Nvidia Drivers that are not tweaked near as good as windows, also you have the issue of the xserver not using multi cpu's the way it could/should. and we also have the issue of OpenGL(FreeBSD) vs Directx(Windows XP) I am not seeing a performance drop in wine rc3 vs rc2 I have both installed on FreeBSD (remember the hardware is exactly the same) the rc3 computer gets a solid 10-15fps better performance that the rc2 computer across the board. here are the difference in the software the rc3 computer is using the new Nvidia 173.x driver (not in FreeBSD ports) the rc3 computer is running in a separate x server and after I start wow.exe I use nice -15 while the rc2 computer has the 169.x Nvidia Driver (From FreeBSD ports) does not start in a separate x server it just starts wow I do not use nice -15 if someone wants a dmesg from my computer I would be happy to provide one, (I am on my laptop right now so I can't include it) All in all I am very satisfied with WoW on wine in FreeBSD Sam Fourman Jr. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
