Somehow DF 12.0(beta 8 ) creates keyboard 'input lag'...

This showed itself after a while when typing in browser searchbar, the characters appears slowly and/or with a delay.
I noticed this because I was searching for help because my avatar in my FPS game would keep running after I stopped inputing 'forward' (or any direction), this is not a good feature when running around in high places and not wanting to drop down :laugh:

Problem dissapeared af reverting back to DF Pro 11.1.1, but then I saw that DF is not showing correct windows version in the 'about' (24H2/25H2).

I haven't tested any other beta or with any other browser, but when it affects games also, it can't be just my flavour of browser.

Win 11 (25H2 26200.7309)
Edge Version 142.0.3595.94
Epic version of game: Nightingale

Could you send me debug log? Here are the steps:

On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and then click "Clear Log"
Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
Reply with the file attached
Disable debug logging after sending the log

Here are the log...
It took about 5-10 minutes before it started to lag, so timestamp should be about or just after 16:12 (if that is what you asked for)

This with 12, beta 8

Just after compiling the log I killed DF and the issue went away ::)

Will try same with 11.1.1 and report if that has issues (not certain at this point)

Thanks for sending that over. This might be related to the Nvidia Overlay, if you close that out and restart the game, does the issue persist?

Is this happening with any other games, or just that one?

No, not only "Nightingale" (Epic), just tried with "Deep Rock Galactic" (Steam), and it only took 10 minutes before the lag began.
Again as I'm writing this after exiting game, there is lag with the lettering appearing.

Couldn't log it, because pc kept switching between DRG and DF-log to an extend that I could not play the game.

Don't think I've had this problem with DRG under DF 11.1.1 (will have to test it)

We've tested with Deep Rock Galactic here but can't reproduce it. Can you confirm rolling back to beta 7 fixes it up?

I tried beta 7, same problem but........

I think I've narrowed it down to HWinfo64.

I've been running Nightingale for 1½ hours without any problems on beta 8, with all my normal apps running, except HWi (I know I have a lot, but I "need" them all

)

I've tried with "no apps" but HWi, and after 30 min-ish the problem showed itself (timestamp 10:00).
This is sadly a bit funny, because I sought out DF, because of the option to have Taskbar-Tray on 2nd monitor so I could have HWi temps on CPU & GPU visible even in a fullscreen game

On that note, is there any chance for a DF-lite, with tray on 2nd screen,snap-windows and move-window-button only?

Also, DRG still unplayable with beta 7 and 8 when DF log is enabled, but no problem in DRG with DF log on 11.1.1

@TheCagster Ah interesting, glad to hear you found the root cause. We do have a feature request open for a lite version, so I've added your vote to it. Having logging enabled will definitely cause performance issues, we've added a bunch of extra logging in our latest beta.

@PAB If you disable wallpaper transitions in the Advanced Settings and reboot, does that fix it up?
