Can't reproduce. I'm pretty much using your script (w/o SVP) in both mpv and MPC. Playing a 720p 25fps video. Both is smooth as butter (as 50fps). Below is a screenshot of the stats page.
Resource wise, mpv is using 46.8% of a single core (My Ryzen 5800 has 16 cores) and 81.44% of whole GPU (RTX 2070 Super). MPC + VPSF is using 80.4% of single core and 53.3% of whole GPU. So neither is hitting a throttle.
Could you profile on your end and find out where is the bottleneck? Could it be hardware specific?
Also, do you know what happens to https://github.com/HolyWu/vs-rife? I thought that one excited some people for a while. Is it dead? Does that have better performance?
Can't reproduce.
Hmmmm....
Does that have better performance?
after recent ncnn/Vulkan updates the perf difference is much smaller (like ~25%, comparing to x3-x4 times before). in exchange for huge DLC and several seconds (re-)init time
Could you try MPC-HC instead of MPC-BE?
several seconds (re-)init time
Noticed this. The first init time is long. Init time on seek is tolerable.
Could you try MPC-HC instead of MPC-BE?
Same result. The video is played perfectly. Same resource wise. Also tested EVR in MPC-HC and worked well.
Turns out that the list of Vulkan devices somehow depends on the application. On my laptop MPC-HC shows two devices - i.e. AMD IGP is id0 and RTX 2060 is id1, while MPC-BE & mpv can only see RTX 2060 as id0. No idea why, but it's definitely not AVSF's issue.

After a few recent updates its performance is now somehow usable for real-time playback. For example, rtx 2060 gives ~170 fps converting 480p and ~70fps converting 720p, so it should also work in a real time. And so it does in mpv.
But in MPC-HC it only gives 0.6-0.8 rate (480p) or even 0.25 rate (720p). "Frame rate" on the Status page shows low values including source frame rate value.
The minimal script w/o SVP:
