Aura

6 - Aura/Buff Throttle

 As far as I can tell, this addon has performance issues when it comes to having more then a few auras up at a time, the same kind I experienced before I got the BuffThrottle addon.

    2.1 introduced even more throttling.

    Going to go ahead and close this.

    Aura 2.0 beta was pushed out. Give it a try and see if that helps alleviate some of the performance issues you were having.

    Aura has the potential to be even worse at being efficient than the default client due to how an Aura is setup, but it also has the ability to be faster. v2.0.0 introduces some basic throttling, till that is released check out the paragraph below.

    Below is a copy and paste of part of a conversation I had with another individual to help get Aura optimized. This information will eventually be provided in the manual.

    "The engine checks the configuration in this order, so being as specific as possible on the Effect configs can definitely speed things up.

    1) Checks "Self Cast" flag 2) Checks Effect Type

    3) Checks if the names match if "Exact Match" is on -or- 4) Searches the name of the effect on the target(self,friendly,enemy) for the Effect Name provided.

    5) If it finds a matching Effect, it then does Stack calculation if need be 6) It then processes Show When Not Active.

    With this information, I would suggest you review how your Effects are configured and do the following to them, if applicable:

    1) If you provide an Effect Name, also provide an Effect type, this will cut out searching names for types that dont match. 2) If you know the exact name of an effect, check the "Exact Match" as comparing 2 names is much more efficient than searching for a word within a name."
