I would really love limetech to have a proper feature map, there are a ton of stuff I want to see but none of it is in development as far as I know. Atleast if there was a roadmap I'd be able to decide if I wish to stick with unraid or go else where depending on if I am happy to wait. At the moment I haven't even seen a list of "maybes"

Hey thanks, I have looked through a lot of other threads and I have managed since posting this, to get some improvement. by setting host mode instead of pass through. It made a massive difference but my latency was still a problem. I have since re-added my passthrough for GPU and USB keyboard.

MSI untility you send (Thanks for that, I used one from github but it didnt have a gui) and my results now look like this: I'd say it improved things by about 15-20% on my last test. So the utility worked. Do you have any other ideas of how I can get it all under 1000?

Oh and I have set cpu isoloation

Hey, Hoping someone can point me in the right direction or offer some suggestions, I have a rig with duel Xeon 5660 and I am having some realy bad cpu lag, as seen below: I have tried disablin multithreading and manually assigning the cores and setting emulatorpin my current cpu tune is: <vcpu placement='static'>4</vcpu> <cputune> <vcpupin vcpu='0' cpuset='8'/> <vcpupin vcpu='1' cpuset='9'/> <vcpupin vcpu='2' cpuset='10'/> <vcpupin vcpu='3' cpuset='11'/> <emulatorpin cpuset='6-7'/> </cputune> I am testing without any passthroughs as well. My cpu assignments are as follows (Note I am hyperthreading is off at the moment): PU Thread Pairings Single: cpu 0 Single: cpu 1 Single: cpu 2 Single: cpu 3 Single: cpu 4 Single: cpu 5 Single: cpu 6 Single: cpu 7 Single: cpu 8 Single: cpu 9 Single: cpu 10 Single: cpu 11 Any help appreicated

Believe it or not... Shortly after booting up the ubuntu usb and the motherboard has seemed to give up the ghost. I think the problem was is there were actually 2 different cpus in the server which I was wrong about.

Just burning ubuntu now, but I played with the bios settings using this as a guide https://www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh/comments/6z2mc2/setting_up_the_hp_z800_workstation_a_work_in/ Anyway after booting in to unraid I get this: Still same issues with cpu power though Will update shortly with ubuntu findings

Haha, yeah I did indeed install and confirm the CPUs.. What I'll do is when I get home tonight, I'll check the bios for any werid settings and try and run live ubuntu and report back the CPU states from ubuntu if its the same then I guess unraid isn't the problem. Its a pretty old motherboard so it could just be some strange power saving feature. Will update later

Yep it has two Quad core E6530 cpus on an HP Z800 motherboard, was good fun getting it in a normal ATX case and converting the power. The bios sees both cpus. I don't think unraid is seeing them as separate cpus?

Just checked again, I just cannot think of a reason why the last 4 cpus i.e. socket 2 is running at 2530mhz while the other is always lower. Do you have any other ideas?

Thanks for you reply, the output is: root@Odin:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor | wc -l 8 root@Odin:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor processor : 0 processor : 1 processor : 2 processor : 3 processor : 4 processor : 5 processor : 6 processor : 7 root@Odin:~# Any help would be greatly appericated

Hey, I have set the CPU Governor via the Tips and Tweeks plugin, however I noticed only one cpu seems to pay attention the other one which has almost no used seems to be stuck at the the full 2.5ghz. I have confirmed this by running: grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo cpu MHz : 1598.407 cpu MHz : 1598.412 cpu MHz : 1598.415 cpu MHz : 1598.414 cpu MHz : 2530.821 cpu MHz : 2530.819 cpu MHz : 2530.828 cpu MHz : 2530.822 Is this a known bug and is there away around it?

Hey, First post woop! Just wanted to say that the docker default settings have the docker container port set to 8443 looking at the docker itself it is 8080 meaning if anyone installs this they have to remember to change it. Hope this saves someone the 15 minutes it has taken me to figure it out!
