Right - we’ll try that then. I’ll put up some posts later.
So, the PC has been upgraded to a whopping 8GB of RAM. With rf2 running, it is using more than 2GB in total - so the upgrade can only be helping as the hard drives are not SSDs and so paging is painful.
I’ve tried two 15xAI races - both were absolutely ‘fine’. Not perfect - in both races in the first lap or so the entire field lurched slightly once or twice but not drastically. For the rest of the races it was fine with no obvious glitches.
In the first race, the pc was still settling itself down after the reboot and the cpu was being pretty heavily used by system processes - it would be easy to max out for a fraction of a second and get a glitch. I did check the cpu usage towards the end of my second race (after crashing!) and it was only around 50-60%.
Given we’re not likely to use AI, this is pretty promising as the overhead of real drivers should be less.
