Thanks, fixed NativeQueryConfig. |

Seems to work fine. It's slower but seems more stable - that said, it's also slower than running the game without it for > 60 seconds, at least for me. -[Unknown] |

Good to know, thanks for testing! Maybe it will be useful for some. |

Right - I should've clarified: I mostly got full speed either way. There were dips both with it on and off, but the dips were worse with sustained on. Fast forward confirmed a difference in max speed/clock. Probably should've tried more games. I suspect that games that consistently run full speed will probably use less battery and might have more even performance. Wasn't meaning to say it didn't seem like a good feature to me. -[Unknown] |
Fixes #9738.
Sustained performance mode is intended for keeping clock frequency down to be able to run for a long time without overheating. Enabling this on a device makes it a good optimization target and will of course also last longer, but will also run slower.
Anyway, I'm surprised that my Nexus 5X with Android O Beta on it returns false when I ask isSustainedPerformanceModeSupported() , so can't use it on that, strangely. You'd think that it would be supported on the very latest Android...
