Dota 2 benchmark comparison – before and after Aghs Lab release

Observations:

For dx11, you can see that the average, minimum, maximum, 1% low and 0.1% low framerates have all reduced. Though, this is by a small amount (around 4-8%) and not necessarily unplayable.

However, for vulkan, it is much worse. The average, minimum and maximum framerates are all 10-20% lower. The 1% low and 0.1% low are extremely bad, at a whopping 80-90% drop.

Furthermore, there have been frequent instances of the game completely freezing for 1-3 seconds since the past few weeks. This is on dx11 (which I normally play on), although I don't know if its happening on vulkan as well.
