I have an i7-7700, 32 gb of ram and a Gtx 1660 super gpu.. When I loaded SL for the first time on this machine it didn't set mirrors to default. What do I need in this thing to have mirrors optimized? I mean, do we need state of the art top of the line PCs now? How far do you need to push your userbase away before you say "That's enough?"

Same issue, on a 5-year old MacBook Pro with Radeon Pro vega 20 4GB GPU. Current official viewer, current Firestorm - all make the fans spin like crazy and fps drop under 5 even with lowest settings.
On pre-PBR Firestorm, I always had to "disable ambient lighting" to get no-fan-noise and good framerates. However this setting is not available post-PBR anymore.
PBR is leaving a lot of people on older hardware behind! And mind you, my 5 year old MBP runs games like Baldurs Gate or Final Fantasy without any problems!

In our testing here on a similar machine, the FPS is better on DeltaFPS than on Atlasaurus.
Please open in Second Life the Me menu > Preferences > Graphics and click the "Reset to recommended settings" button, and click OK to close Preferences. Then open the Statistics floater (Ctrl+Shift+1) and take a snapshot and attach it to a comment.

Dan Linden At the near low "default" yes, it seems to do ok most of the time but still seizing dipping to single digit frames at times, but lag spikes started to appear at Mid to Mid-High jumping from 30+ to 1-2 with seamingly no rhyme or reason around the introduction of WebRTC (and into DeltaFPS) that weren't there all the way up through Featurettes. I still say the newer code is strangling it and something is botched somewhere. While you say improved on Atlasaurus, I'll give you that but barely and far worse than Featurettes.

Hi Melody,
Can you try out the latest DeltaFPS build and send a screenshot or video of the horrible FPS in action at the same location? Please also have the Statistics floater shown (Ctrl+Shift+1) and the Texture Console (Ctrl+Shift+3) which requires the Develop menu to be enabled.

Atlas Linden That's a DeltaFPS build, I had tried again on a later one, no benefit. I can barely even move or type let alone cue up a floater.
