You guys are doing a phenomenal job. I really appreciate the ride as the PBs continue to flow.

Thanks for all your work and devotion to our addiction.

Interesting, besides rendering the world, I actually thought that calculating the flight models and updating non-static world objects would consume the rest of xplane’s cpu usage.

It’s not a high priority. We use SSE2 (as a vector instruction set, not as a cheap replacement for x87) in a few places, but there actually aren’t a ton of places where it helps us. The GPU tends to take the cases where vector instructions could really win.

Do you plan on taking advantage of avx? Since x-plane probably deals a lot with vectors, maybe you can get a few extra percent performance increase this way. Almost every cpu you set as a minimum requirement for xpl11 should have at least avx support, and newer ones also have avx2

I’m already in contact with them.

No specific time frame.

ok! thanks for the support!

I just filed a bug on JARDesign A320. And on JAR forum there has been some noise about this.

Even JAR did acknowledged this with some frustration.

No. Please file a bug report. Be specific about which aircraft it is, etc. etc.
