Tips for slow loading chunk(map)

[Alex Garcio]

After some test i have discover.
If the game are install on a slow hard drive this will cause slow loading map.

After install the game on a SSD i have to wait less.

But after install the game on a MvmeM2 the map instant load and i don't stop anymore with a truck on an asphalte road.

Good game all.

This is true for nearly all games that are bound by your hard drive.

A HDD is extremely slow due to the mechanical moving parts to find information on the drive.

A SSD is faster since it uses flash memory, but it's also limited by your SATA connection speed. Which is usually capped out at 6gbps.

A M.2 drive is SSD tech (flash memory), but in a M.2 slot, which isn't limited in speed really.

As an example here's my benchmarks for sequential Read/Write:

HDD: 155/138
SSD: 193/94 (very cheap SSD)
M.2: 3,548/2,462

As you can see, the M.2 is about 2,289% faster than my HDD... So in other words, if anything is loading from my M.2 it's going to be 2,289% faster than if it was on the HDD.
