When doing a longer video of 2 minutes/22 seconds and no hardware, I only found a*3.3% increase*.  So I think the results are very dependent.  This video was 3840x2160 with 25 framerate, av1/webm.  I rendered h264.mp4 format.

But anyway. I did add a note to the Manual stating that AppImage could be slower and referred to the section on "distros with Cinelerra included" which references Andrey's RPMs, etc.


Yes, I think I have also experienced that h264 rendering behave differently, and may be slower than default hevc and  av1.

The following h264 comparative tests with my same short hdv video clip on Leap, show only 6% faster cpu rendering and close race 0.3% faster gpu rendering for the RPM. These tests shows also that h264_qsv gpu rendering is 2.37x faster than h264 cpu rendering.

h264.mp4 (yuv420p, i7-12700KF cpu)
** rendered 5972 frames in 46.738 secs, 127.776 fps (RPM, )
** rendered 5972 frames in 49.732 secs, 120.084 fps (AppImage)

h264_qsv_8b420.mp4 (A750 gpu)
** rendered 5972 frames in 20.275 secs, 294.550 fps (RPM)
** rendered 5972 frames in 20.345 secs, 293.536 fps (AppImage)

    Slower AppImage is to be expected, but still disappointing.
    Bottom line is that users who can take advantage of Andrey's RPMs
    should always do so.  Besides being faster, it provides more
    capabilities and opportunity to make some minor side changes. 
    Thank you, Terje, for doing the tests and passing along this
    information.

        I did a few hevc and av1 OSV render tests using the latest
        RPM w/oneVPL
        on Leap, to compare it with my own AppImage.
        To get the AppImage from Slowroll to run om Leap, I had to
        add-install a
        newer version libFLAC12.

        The machine is AlderLake w/Arc A750 gpu
        The OS root drive is on a std SATA disc, while the video
        files are
        read/written to a fast M.2 disc.

        Results:

        hevc_qsv_8b420.mp4
        ** rendered 5972 frames in 19.255 secs, 310.153 fps (RPM)
        ** rendered 5972 frames in 23.798 secs, 250.945 fps (AppImage)

        av1_qsv_8b420.mp4
        ** rendered 5972 frames in 18.612 secs, 320.868 fps (RPM)
        ** rendered 5972 frames in 21.470 secs, 278.156 fps (AppImage)

        In average rendering is ca. 20% faster with the RPM.
        I did also additional test with the AppImage on Slowroll and
        got a bit
        faster rendering, but not so fast as with RPM on Leap.

    ==========================

    Not especially news or differently, but as I also have
    supplemented my AppImages and native builds tests on Slowroll, I
    add them here.  My conclusion is that the package (RPM) build (due
    to most dynamically linked libs I guess?) still stands as fastest,
    while the AppImages supply with benefit of portability (cross
    Linux distributions).
