Reducing Random Read Latency
Every time I switched scenes in Kamurocho, the loading bar would freeze at 90% for seconds, which was incredibly frustrating. I tried running a disk defrag, which is useless for NVMe and actually slowed down response times, leaving me helpless. I used GamePP NVMe Queue Depth Configuration to increase depth from 32 to 128. CrystalDiskMark showed random reads rose to 55-62MB/s, and HWiNFO confirmed SSD temps at 38-46℃. No more torturous waiting.
