It's more practical to work on a local machine without having to compile everything, and setting up for accurate benchmarking is doable as you wouldn't disturb anyone else's work by switching the scheduler or fixing the frequency. I also messaged you about getting access to the Ampere machine a little over a week ago, but you didn't respond, so sysadmin latency is high. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
