Hello.I commonly use this GLSL shader in another environment that does temporal averaging. Ive attempted to port it over to QC as an Core Image Kernal. It works, however, over time my framerate drops, then I have to force quit QC or my whole machine hangs.
Within the 'Send to Apple' crash log, I note what is basically an infinite stack of texture requests, something like:
Thread id: 5da03c8

and on and on and on.Now, the kernel I use requires feeding its output into one of its sampler inputs. Suspecting some recursion in the Core Image optimizing compiler runtime magic elves voodoo.. stuff.. , Ive tried various methods to do this feedback copy stage. Ive tried an image splitter, using a passthrough core image kernel, and a crop filter without doing any cropping. None have had any effect, and I still slow down over time.

Anyone care to take a look and explain where I am going wrong. In Jitter, I can run this shader for days on end at a solid 60FPS.
For reference, I am running 10.5.1, Macbook Pro, QT 7.3 (not 7.3.1) Thanks,
