----------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
Reporter: huhabla | Owner: grass-dev@…

Comment(by huhabla):
I have improved the benchmark script and implemented PIL based and
g.pnmcomp image composition (without transparency). Now png, bmp and ppm
images are created and mmap is enabled for bmp images. Time is measured
for the whole rendering/composition process and separately for the
composition.
My test system is a core-i5 2410M with 8GB RAM and 320Gig HD running
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
It seems to me that creating raw bmp images without mmap enabled shows the
best performance for the PNG and Cairo driver. Maybe i did something
wrong, but the use of mmap shows no obvious benefit?
The png compression slows the rendering significantly down and is IMHO not
well suited as image exchange format in the rendering/composition process.
Running the render processes in parallel shows only for the 4096x4096
pixel size images a significant benefit.
Any suggestions to improve the benchmark? Does my setup produce reasonable
results?
Here the script:
