Awesome game - had to disable SMT on my system for gaming to work properly (not just this game)
With SMT (Hyperthreading enabled) on a threadripper 3970x, the game was unplayable. When i disbaled SMT, the game ran smooth as silk with all 32 cores being used.
All my gaming problems (including on this one) appeared to all stem from having SMT enabled. When it was disabled in the CPU bios settings, the game ran beautifully with zero issues at all. With SMT Enabled - it was laggy, stuttery and unplayable at high speeds. As mentioned, not just this game, but all games, so for me it was a hardware issue.
This game is awesome - Its definately worth getting - and if you limit your cpu cores (for high core machines, it runs great.

I run the experimental version, and I have a 32 core CPU. I found that you have to limit the cores available to the game to make it playable. the launch contitions provided are how i managed to make it smooth when running at 3x speed.
High core count CPUs need to limit the number of cores available - and I founn that I had to start at core 0 to get smooth play. Starting from core 32-47 for example caused it to be slow and unplayable - but from 0 to 15, it was smooth.

Works - but can be improved with the command line options.
