First and foremost, this does what Tobey's mod does - temporarily uncaps framerate and disables vsync. These tweaks get you pretty much all the gains you can get on modern hardware.

Additionally, this mod sets process priority to High and disables some rendering (vanilla does this for new game, but not save load):

  • Water surface rendering
  • Weighted blended order-independent transparency (WBOIT)
  • Underwater volume effects
  • Post-processing effects
  • Camera preload streaming

In my testing these additions were not meaningful compared to Tobey's mod. However, someone with a weak PC and an old HDD might benefit from the extra functionality.
