M8H storport.sys causing high latency

Jagdseelen
Level 8
Using Latency Mon I have discovered the storport.sys is causing high latency.

storport.sys 2.008436

Does anyone have a solution for this?

CONCLUSION
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Your system appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. You are likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs, clicks or pops. One or more DPC routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 0:00:50 (h:mm:ss) on all processors.

CPU SPEED
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Reported CPU speed: 4008 MHz
Measured CPU speed: 1 MHz (approx.)

Note: reported execution times may be calculated based on a fixed reported CPU speed. Disable variable speed settings like Intel Speed Step and AMD Cool N Quiet in the BIOS setup for more accurate results.

WARNING: the CPU speed that was measured is only a fraction of the CPU speed reported. Your CPUs may be throttled back due to variable speed settings and thermal issues. It is suggested that you run a utility which reports your actual CPU frequency and temperature.

MEASURED INTERRUPT TO USER PROCESS LATENCIES
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The interrupt to process latency reflects the measured interval that a usermode process needed to respond to a hardware request from the moment the interrupt service routine started execution. This includes the scheduling and execution of a DPC routine, the signaling of an event and the waking up of a usermode thread from an idle wait state in response to that event.

Highest measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 2016.833689
Average measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 7.638099

Highest measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 2008.402537
Average measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 1.953614

REPORTED DPCs
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
DPC routines are part of the interrupt servicing dispatch mechanism and disable the possibility for a process to utilize the CPU while it is interrupted until the DPC has finished execution.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
REPORTED HARD PAGEFAULTS
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is interrupted and blocked from execution.


Process with highest pagefault count: corsairlink4.service.exe

Total number of hard pagefaults 155
Hard pagefault count of hardest hit process: 95
Highest hard pagefault resolution time (µs): 154.975050

Can't believe I'm the only one with this problem. Someone must have a solution for this problem.

Thank for the reply.

It did to start after I installed the 2.1 drivers for my Samsung 960 Pro.

Will test it now.

Ok after hours of testing I just ended up re installing Windows. I figured it would be the fastest solution.

storport.sys is no longer causing latency issues.

Did you installed 2.1 again?

Not been game to yet. been progressively re installing everything else checking after each new install.

its only a matter or time before I find the reason.

I'm pretty sure the reason is the set of updates that have been going around trashing people's pc's , the last of which rolled out the 14th.
i think they are updates KB3199986,KB4013418,and KB3211320. I had the same issues and after a plethora of test , part swaps and a gallon of pure pain traced my issues to windows update. I did a clean install of windows and used the machine flawlessly for 1 day , as soon and it rebooted to install those updates it returned to the exact same behavior as before . If you google a few of those updates you will learn once they are installed you can not remove them and they are causing various problems to thousands of people across the net.

I re installed windows 2 days ago now and the problem is yet to return. I have updated windows with all updates. Those updates were not installed as a part of the reinstall process.

A bit of advice.
There is zero advantage to using Samsung NVMe drivers. Those native to the OS work just fine.
