[opensource-dev] Performance: 100%-150% increase in rendering

[Dzonatas Sol]

Hi,

I believe I found another solution.

In my research as I optimized graphics routines in the viewer, I 
achieved between 100% to 150% increase in rendering performance. To be 
fair, I reported as "up to 100%".

There overall frame loop has many tasks, so keep that in mind that 
overall performance increase noted are of tasks that directly related to 
rendering itself.

I was blackboxed from the results when deployed. I admit, it pissed me 
off how that was done, even if I had a right to be pissed, ... meh.

However, I found out that "shown" results were actually not even my 
fault. I even realize they aren't of the of fault of those who 
immediately  worked around with me on it. Of what little I had to work 
with, it didn't make sense, and the obvious thing was to "fix" it as a bug.

I think some of us realize it was no software bug. I can understand 
while the market plays to GPUs, that such any performance increase that 
would generally help everybody would be held back because of....  
"overclockers".

I don't think it matters anymore, and no need to keep something that 
isn't a secret as a secret anymore.

Let's just say that I was visualizing how the "streaming media 
extensions" work through the hardware. Then I realized that the obvious 
answer was that "overclockers" were reporting problems yet they weren't 
telling they overclocked. The visualization I had led me to decide that 
is the logical explanation.

"Overclocking"... don't do that!  We have proven that the overall 
performance in rendering "sucks" for the larger general audience due to 
the "few" that report "knowledge" of their "crashes" from "overclocking" 
yet....  those details aren't even being recorded even when fully not 
blackboxed.

Even where there is no crashes...  it is only a demostrations of where 
the GPU actuall fails... and not the CPU...  of course there is no 
crash. The GPU is preventing itself... it only overheats... hides itself 
and "BURN".

Enjoy!
