Hi all,
 
I recently received a couple of new workstations which have the NVIDIA 4500 X2 video cards installed (Dell machines). We intend to run all our new visuals on the machines using OSG. I've been trying to gauge the graphics performance and from what I've seen so far I'm thoroughly disappointed. I'm assuming at this point the boards are not properly configured. The issue I'm having is trying to find a way to test the boards to determine if they are in fact improperly configured or just don't measure up.
 
As an example, I have a scene database that I load into OSG; at any given moment, the scene has about 40K primitives. I'm only getting frame rates around 5-10Hz - which is totally unacceptable. According to the specs, these GPU's are capable of 225M triangles/sec. I feel certain that only 1 of the 2GPU's is being exercised - I know of no way to verify it.
 
With all the graphics/visual system wizards who monitor this sight I thought someone out there might be able to provide some advice on getting these new boards properly configured so I can actually test their performance.
 
Additional info on the new boxes is:
2 Intel Xenon 3.7GHz - Linux OS EMT64
16GB memory
 
Also, kudos for the flawless 64-bit OSG build. Worked without a single glitch.
 
 
Bryan
