ParkControl was developed by Bitsum and is designed to manage core parking settings. These settings are hidden in the Windows operating system but have a significant impact on performance, especially under pulsed processor loads (the most common type of load). After the tool’s developers discovered these dependencies, Intel decided to move core parking management from the operating system to the hardware, confirming Bitsum’s findings.
Bitsum Highest Performance: A power plan that automatically optimizes hardware components for maximum performance, exceeding the capabilities of the standard “High Performance” power plan in Windows.
Bitsum Dynamic Boost: Automatically switches power plans when the computer is active and idle. When actively using the PC, stay in Bitsum Highest Performance mode.
Bitsum Dynamic Boost is designed to dynamically change the power plan when the computer is active and to reduce resource consumption during idle periods (feature available in version 1.1 only).
Empirical data shows that disabling processor parking can lead to significant differences in system performance. The effectiveness of this measure for a given system is influenced by many factors, including processor type, application load, and user behavior.
However, Windows implements very aggressive core parking, which leads to excessive latency because cores are “unparked” during peak loads.
In Bitsum’s tests, disabling processor parking yielded the greatest gains with AMD processors. This is due to the difference in how AMD processors distribute computing resources between logical cores. Microsoft optimized the OS for Intel’s HyperThreading technology, which relies less on secondary cores. AMD’s secondary logical cores are practically full-fledged processors.
ParkControl settings are completely safe for any properly functioning computer. The only possible scenario for behavioral changes is potential overheating issues. In this case, these issues will occur regardless of the settings used, simply due to the heavy load on the processor.
