Especially with the 3.5 preview/beta update I’ve been seeing a lot of people say that the stuff CryoUtilities does is wack and doesn’t really work, and one dude even went as far as to call it a placebo in a post where I mentioned it.

Does stuff like the swap file and swappiness, amongst other things, really boost performance and all that? Or is it just a waste of time and (storage) space?

    I dunno, I’ve found it to work amazingly… Depending on the game.
    Forza horizon 5 runs amazingly on the steam deck despite turning it into a toaster and killing the battery in like an hour.

    It made final fantasy 13 run like a shining diamond.

    I think the guy’s done a lot of work and it shows and I appreciate it, really made the steam deck something more than it was.
