Process Lasso / Re: Ryzen balanced

Last post by Richardsa2 - October 09, 2024, 02:23:52 AM

What are the potential benefits and drawbacks of using a high-performance profile versus a balanced profile for AMD processors like the 5800X and 5600X, and how can users effectively manage temperatures during intensive workloads like Prime95?

Process Lasso / Re: Guide for Using Lasso for ...

Last post by spacepolitical - October 09, 2024, 12:06:50 AM

I think you should consider the following factors

• Basic Configuration Process Prioritization: Set the priority of your flight sim to "High" or "Realtime" to ensure it gets more CPU resources.
• Affinity Masking: Assign specific CPU cores to your flight sim to improve performance. This can help avoid stuttering by preventing the sim from competing with background processes.
• Managing Background Processes Use Lasso to identify and limit resource-hungry background applications that can interfere with your flight sim's performance. You can set these processes to a lower priority.
• Real-Time Process Management Enable the option for Lasso to manage real-time processes, which can help in ensuring that the sim remains responsive.

Hi,

For setting up Lasso to optimize performance and reduce stutter in flight sims, it's best to refer to the official documentation or guides provided on the Lasso website. While YouTube videos can offer helpful tips, they may vary in accuracy or relevance due to updates. Look for a comprehensive guide on the Lasso site that outlines the recommended features and configurations specifically for flight simulators, as this will provide the most reliable and up-to-date information.


Thanks

If the Process Lasso Install Assistant window isn't showing up and you're encountering issues with installhelper.exe, Sometimes, windows may open off-screen. Right-click on the desktop and go to Display settings. If you have multiple displays, make sure that the display settings are configured correctly, and that windows aren't being sent to a non-visible area. Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) and find installhelper.exe. End the process and then try launching the Process Lasso Install Assistant again.

Process Lasso / Re: Proces Lasso Boost & Effic...

Last post by Jeremy Collake - October 07, 2024, 11:19:10 AM

We have been aware of the potential confusion surrounding the recently added "Boost" submenu. Specifically, it is easily confused with Foreground Boosting. At the time of product release, it wasn't clear that labelling it "Dynamic Thread Priority Boosting" (the proper name by Windows) would have been an improvement. Given that this feature isn't commonly used, it's likely that we'll hide it in the "More" submenu going forward.

Hi,

I think the process is running may be due to a conflict with other startup programs or services. Since it works in Safe Boot, try these steps:

Clean Boot: Perform a clean boot by disabling non-Microsoft startup programs and services to identify the conflict.

Type msconfig in the Run dialog (Win+R), go to the Services tab, check Hide all Microsoft services, then click Disable all.
Go to the Startup tab in Task Manager and disable startup items.
Restart and try running Process Lasso's installer again.
Disable Antivirus: Temporarily disable your antivirus or security software, as it may be interfering with the installation process.

Run as Administrator: Right-click on the installhelper.exe and select Run as Administrator to ensure it has the necessary permissions.

If these steps don't resolve the issue, reinstall Process Lasso in Safe Boot and reconfigure settings from there.

Thanks

There are way too many functions in process lasso called "boost" I'm here posting this because I just had to search through the manual a third time for the word boost for another fricking BOOST. Can we rename this to something less confusing cause oh my god

Yes, all programs, whether installed at the time of setting the Reserved CPU Sets or later, will be restricted to the E-cores. Only processes that you create CPU affinity rules for will use the P-cores.

Ok, thanks!

Yes, after setting the Reserved CPU Sets, all installed applications, in addition to the OS, will be restricted to the E-cores. Only processes that you create CPU affinity rules for will use the P-cores.

You can make it happen, but I can't speak to how performant the end result will be because many OS threads are better off on the P-cores.

Using Process Lasso, here's how to restrict your entire system to E-cores, except for processes you specifically allow to use the P-cores:

1. Open menu item "Options / Tools / System Reserved CPU Sets". Select all your P-cores, as shown in the screenshot attached. Reboot.
2. Open menu item "Options / CPU / CPU Affinities..." to set P-core affinities for the process(es) you want to use the P-cores.

Thank you very much for your help, it has been of great help to me because I did not know of its existence.

But I have another question that has come to my mind now. If I then installed any program outside the operating system, it will also be restricted to use the ecores? I say this in case I then have to apply the rule to the software so that it only uses the pcores.
