Aquasuite - Microstuttering in games while using an overview page

Yesterday, 3:19pm

I'm using a custom overview page to display fan/pump/temperature statistics on a small monitor. When gaming there are microstutters every time the polling of metrics takes place, to the point where the games are unplayable. I've tried forcing Aquasuite to use the iGPU, and it's the same result. Any possible workarounds? The metrics include LEAKSHIELD, etc., so they're critical to me.

Here's a video of the behavior: https://medal.tv/games/microsoft-flight-…DQ0MTU0MTk&v=12
Attached is a screenshot, it's low resolution but the detail is MainThread without Aquasuite is generally <10ms, when each polling cycle runs for metrics MainThread jumps to ~20ms and the game stutters.


Thanks,

The animation of the gauge element is known to cause performance hits. Try to disable it.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I just disabled the animation function, though it was only an option with the fan/pump RPM gauges on the bottom right. I also tried removing the three gauges and the microstutters are still present. I was able to use the data export/aquacomputer service output combined with another overlay tool to get this working. The Aquasuite overview page has a much cleaner layout, so I'd be interested in troubleshooting more.
