I did some testing yesterday evening on Windows and here are my results:

{ Platform: Athlon X2 4200+, 2GB RAM, Windows XP latest patches, NVIDIA
GF7900GT & low-end NVIDIA 6150, 3 screens }

Running runexamples.bat for each threading model

Single-Threaded
===============

osgimpostor (extremely slow)
osgplanets (corrupted image on center & right screens - left screen OK) -
will double check my setup

all other examples perform well

CullDrawThreadPerContext
========================

osgprecipitations (slow)

crashes for:

osgdistortion
osgdepthshadow
osgimpostor
osgprerender
osgprerendercubemap
osgshadowtexture
osgsimulation

DrawThreadPerContext
====================

osgprecipitations (slow)

update processing seems to be out-of-sync
(very fast movements when mouse is used)

No smoke/fire effects visible for:
(probably due to issue above)

osgblendequation
osgmultitexture

crashes for:

osgdistortion
osgdepthshadow
osgimpostor
osgprerender
osgprerendercubemap
osgshadowtexture
osgsimulation
osgpick
osgspheresegment

CullThreadPerCameraDrawThreadPerContext
=======================================

osgprecipitations (slow)

update processing normal but performance generally sluggish on all examples

crashes for:

osgdistortion
osgdepthshadow
osgimpostor
osgprerender
osgprerendercubemap
osgshadowtexture
osgsimulation
osgpick
osgfxbrowser


I will try to look at some of these issues this evening.

André
