Hi there, after the Benchmarking I did I decided to try analyze the diferences between MinGW and MSVC build in depth. First of all I ran several Benchmarks of math functions in both GCC an MSVC and found out: Amazing! they are both equally fast! So math functions isn't the bottleneck here. So I tried to get a grip on real data and tried out "Very Sleepy" ( free download at: http://www.codersnotes.com/sleepy ) to profile cycles on MSVC.
What I found here was quite interresting: While rendering the most time is spent in ccl::bvh_intersect_instancing with 1292.15s (53.70%) O_o Within this call the most time is spent in ccl::bvh_node_intersect with 872.47s (36.26%) . So this is the part we'll have to look at ... I wonder how MinGW builds perform here, but I don't have a proper optimized build with debug info to compare :/ /Jürgen _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
