Hi Robert,
I have seen this as well when toggling between different threading
models. Trying toggling to between SingleThreaded, ThreadPerContext
and ThreadPerCamera.
What I am seeing is that when cull and draw are happening at the same
time the times for each go up. My guess is that the cores are
overwhelmed by the memory bandwidth needs that having both the cull
and draw work at the same time is causing.
Things like processor affinity can also have an effect. I don't know
the status of Suse9.3 w.r.t support for processor affinity.
Processor affinity works in 9.3. I have a small application that lets me
set the affinity of threads from console. With that I made a test. I see
two OSG threads in ThreadPerCamera mode ( btw also in thread per context
there are two threads. Do I have two contexts?? ). When I lock the two
threads to different CPU's performance does *not* change but the
serialization problem disappears. Cull and Draw work always parallel.
Also when I change the threading modes I don't see much difference in
the performance of cull and draw.
Another possiblity for a different is the slightly different view
point between the osgviewer and osgproduceviewer versions.
Looking around with small angular changes don't change anything. To be
sure we'll need to wait path saving though.
4- Is 'f' key is replaced with something else or not implemented yet? I
have a dual head config here. When osgviewer opens a window it makes it
full screen which has some problems about input in this configuration.
Window is opened only on the left screen but input acts as if it is only
the left half of the window ( for example in drive mode centered mouse
results in turning to left and mouse pointer on the right edge results
in driving straight ). This used to happen before and I could solve it
by pressing 'f' and then maximizing the window. I couldn't find a button
that has the same effect.
The osgviewer should be default open up across both heads,this is how
I'm using it everyday here.
How have you set up the dual head? Is it TwinView? Could you send me
you /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
I'm using dual head here but its two cards.
I'll configure my setup so I'm using TwinView.
I've attached xorg.conf . I have two graphics cards but SLI is disabled
and only one of the cards' outputs are used.
