I was just curious to see if the bot runs best when opened, minimized, minimized with the graphics disabled,or open with the graphics disabled for maximum experiance and items being farmed per hour. I myself am not too sure about all this so please post your feedback, ideas etc… :duh:

Pretty sure it doesn't matter if it is minimized / graphics disabled. The slider on the right will effect the cap FPS for SMART so putting it all the way to the top cannot hurt.

thanks, I figured. So then what is the point of disabling the graphics if you could just minimize it anyway then

Not really sure.
Disable graphics doesn't effect script running or CPU usage.
I feel the FPS bar is fine where it is, higher has no/negligible effect on script speed in most cases, and just eats up too much CPU when you move it all the way up.

so put the FPS bar at like 75% of the way up for the best outcome?

Sorry, I just was searching for this. I know it's a bit late, but I assume more people will ask this same question.
Disabling graphics does seem to help me at least. It cuts down anywhere from 10 to 20% when I use it.

I have smart 8.0 minimized and fps bar scrolled all the way up while playing cod4 on the same pc no problems in performance my xp per hour seems to be the same.

i run two scripts with smart 8 and can play bf3 maxed out. i keep the bar on the right at 50%, none of this affects xp/hr for me.
I have found that setting CPU usage in game to very low, cuts CPU usage by about 40-50%, pretty crazy, i remember when RS used to take 10% of my cpu usage on maximum priority in game, now its 30% on maximum prioity in game, gotta love them adding random stuff i dont want or need!!!!

Not true. Minimizing Smart uses way less CPU. Windows doesn't have to blit any graphics to the screen which takes time. Takes even more time if its doing graphics like Smart does as it will be doing it every frame. When minimized, it has to do none/no work.
