</div><!-- fragment --><p>There are some exceptions though, when you should consider mapping memory only for a short period of time:</p>
<ul>
<li>When operating system is Windows 7 or 8.x (Windows 10 is not affected because it uses WDDM2), device is discrete AMD GPU, and memory type is the special 256 MiB pool of <code>DEVICE_LOCAL + HOST_VISIBLE</code> memory (selected when you use <a class="el" href="vk__mem__alloc_8h.html#aa5846affa1e9da3800e3e78fae2305cca9066b52c5a7079bb74a69aaf8b92ff67">VMA_MEMORY_USAGE_CPU_TO_GPU</a>), then whenever a memory block allocated from this memory type stays mapped for the time of any call to <code>vkQueueSubmit()</code> or <code>vkQueuePresentKHR()</code>, this block is migrated by WDDM to system RAM, which degrades performance. It doesn't matter if that particular memory block is actually used by the command buffer being submitted.</li>
