    Bloat has a minimal impact on performance unless your system is seriously starved for resources.

    It’s largely the magic of Proton, and everything that goes into Proton. DXVK runs on windows too and that alone can get you double digit performance improvements on the right games.

      To add to this - for borderlands 2, which is not an “ideal” title at all speedrunners across the board use dxvk while about half of the rest of players use it because not only does it about double fps, it also stops a memory leak, fixes random crash bugs, and cuts down loading times.

      Dxvk is just amazing where it works properly.
