GameMode as the open-source daemon from Feral Interactive to optimize Linix system performance on-demand when running games is out with its first release of 2024. GameMode can dynamically adjust the CPU frequency scaling governor, I/O priority, process niceness, CPU core pinning, and other features when launching games in the name of aiming for peak performance but then returning to prior defaults for power-savings after your gaming session has wrapped up.
