{{cquote|I'm usually interested in very specific before/after questions. For instance, I can push some shader code into a conditional clause and benchmark this to run faster on my system. I'd like to know - does it generalize? I've learned that optimization seems to generalize across nvidia hardware, but I'd like to get feedback in a before/after situation from a Radeon user.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg40318.html|title=<nowiki>Re: [Flightgear-devel] Benchmark matrix</nowiki>|author=Renk Thorsten|date=Sat, 22 Jun 2013 00:35:23 -0700}}</ref>|Renk Thorsten}} | |||
{{cquote|Or, system dependent optimizations. Stuart has introduced a cloud LOD system and has some framerate gain from it in overcast layers. I've been playing with it and couldn't get much clear difference in performance, so I just switched it off completely. What I'd be interested in is - for what hardware do we see framerate gain, and what LOD distances would people typically select in order to get a good balance between visuals and framerate. Or would they prefer to vary cloud density, or cloud visibility radius? If we would know what most people select if given the choice, we could set reasonable defaults and structure the GUI accordingly.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg40318.html|title=<nowiki>Re: [Flightgear-devel] Benchmark matrix</nowiki>|author=Renk Thorsten|date=Sat, 22 Jun 2013 00:35:23 -0700}}</ref>|Renk Thorsten}} | |||
