ImmediatelyFast is an open source Fabric mod which improves the immediate mode rendering performance of the client.
It is designed to be lightweight and compatible with other mods. This makes it an ideal choice for modpacks or as a
replacement for other more aggressive optimization mods such as Exordium or Enhanced Block Entities.
ImmediatelyFast generally optimizes all immediate mode rendering by using a custom buffer implementation which batches
draw calls and uploads data to the GPU in a more efficient way.
The following parts of the immediate mode rendering code are optimized:
- Entities
- Block entities
- Particles
- Text rendering
- GUI/HUD
- Immediate mode rendering of other mods (ImmersivePortals benefits a lot from this)
It also features targeted optimizations where vanilla rendering code is being changed in order to run faster.
The following parts of the rendering code are optimized with a more efficient implementation:
- Map rendering
- HUD rendering
- Text rendering
Here are some performance comparisons of areas the mod optimizes particularly well:
If other mods are listed in the table this means that this mod also optimizes that part of the game.
Test Hardware: Ryzen 5 1600, 32GB DDR4, GTX 1060
FPS Numbers were taken from external tools (in this case MSI Afterburner) and averaged over a couple of seconds.
If you decide to test this yourself keep in mind that ImmediatelyFast can only improve FPS in a scenario where your CPU
is the bottleneck (Most likely the case if your GPU isn't ancient or you use very heavy shaders).
Slower CPUs will benefit more from this mod than really fast CPUs.
