3D acceleration YES YES YES glxgears results

I get the following numbers when typing glxgears

is it any good ?

Code:

glxgears
2464 frames in 5.0 seconds = 492.800 FPS
2904 frames in 5.0 seconds = 580.800 FPS
2892 frames in 5.0 seconds = 578.400 FPS
2905 frames in 5.0 seconds = 581.000 FPS
2929 frames in 5.0 seconds = 585.800 FPS
2904 frames in 5.0 seconds = 580.800 FPS
2903 frames in 5.0 seconds = 580.600 FPS
2903 frames in 5.0 seconds = 580.600 FPS
11979 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2395.800 FPS
61941 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12388.200 FPS
55431 frames in 5.0 seconds = 11086.200 FPS

Thank You

32753 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6550.600 FPS

any good ?
that's about 10 times faster than my ati9200se.
if that is the fps while running in the standard window it's fast i think.

egag i own the same card ATI 9200se .

egag · 06-17-2005, 09:42 AM

huh...
then tell me how to get the big numbers ?
( ...or did you cover the graph. window for that...)

egag

props666999 · 06-17-2005, 09:50 AM

I can see the animation window but maybe the numbers depend
not just from the graphic card,the overall setup maybe

Im on 2600xp athlon with 512 ddr 400

and 2.6.10 kernel

egag · 06-17-2005, 09:57 AM

i've got a sempron 3000 w 512mb/333 ; 2.6.11.11 kernel
that cannot make such a diff.

i've got this in my xorg.conf for that card :

----------
Section "Device"
Identifier "card"
Driver "radeon"
ChipId 0x5964
Option "Overlay"
Option "EnablePageFlip" "on"
EndSection
-----------

would you mind posting yours ?
( only the section "device" )

Run glxinfo | grep direct ,

and don't minimize or defocus the glxgears window when running it because it will show wrong results. (however if you have software rendering minimizing the window will make no effect, but if you've hardware acceleration, it will.

Double post. I've got a problem with my DNS server at the same time I posted this. so I hit Send twice. Please delete this post.

Your numbers look a little weird to me... You're getting 500-600fps for the first 40s, which is a little more reasonable for your video card's capabilities, and then suddenly jump to 10's of thousands of frames per second? What's even more interesting is that your numbers drop back to where they should be in your last iteration.

Did you cover the window, or minimize it, or do something else to obscure the window so it wasn't fully being drawn? And what resolution are you running your desktop at, since that seems to have an effect on the result on my system?

For reference, my system's configuration is:

Athlon XP 2200+
1024MB DDR366 (OCZ PC3000)
ATI Radeon 9550 256MB DDR (I used to have a 9600Ultra, but that bit it with some help from an ESD)
DRI enabled, using FireGL's OpenGL render engine

And the result I get is pretty consistently 1379fps when I haven't touched the window, and over 3,000fps when the window is shaded or obscured.

And my laptop's configuration:
AMD Athlon4 1.2GHz (1197MHz actually)
256MB PC133 (128 soldered on board, 128 in expansion slot)
S3 TwisterK (using the built-in Savage driver), 16mb shared video
No DRI, using Mesa OpenGL engine

That one gets exactly 100fps if I leave the window alone, and exactly 200fps if I obscure it.

EDIT: oh yeah. Desktop is 1920x1440@75Hz. Laptop is 1024x768@whatever the LCD does

egag · 06-17-2005, 10:24 AM

well...i have direct rendering ,
but it does 758 fps in the standard window.
( and not 6550 ).

so i'd like to see how it's configured....

props666999 · 06-17-2005, 10:25 AM

egag here it is

Code:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "mygraph"
    Driver      "radeon"
    #VideoRam    131072
    # Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection

i don't think there is something interesting here to see

egag · 06-17-2005, 10:31 AM

yip, covering the glxgears window gives me about 4200 fps.
( and the processor is used only some 28 % )

egag · 06-17-2005, 10:33 AM

props666999: you could try to add the " pageflip " option.
that made a change here from 550 to 750 fps.

but i still don't understand the huge values from your first post ?

egag

props666999 · 06-17-2005, 10:33 AM

This is what i get without touching it . So 10000 fps come up when windows is minimized

my screen resolution is 1280x1024 75 Hz

Code:

glxgears
2823 frames in 5.0 seconds = 564.600 FPS
2936 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.200 FPS
2937 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.400 FPS
2936 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.200 FPS
2937 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.400 FPS
2936 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.200 FPS
2937 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.400 FPS
2937 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.400 FPS
2936 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.200 FPS
2937 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.400 FPS
2936 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.200 FPS
2937 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.400 FPS
2935 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.000 FPS
2937 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.400 FPS
2937 frames in 5.0 seconds = 587.400 FPS

Thanks egag for the option bit i get better results now

Code:

glxgears
3397 frames in 5.0 seconds = 679.400 FPS
3874 frames in 5.0 seconds = 774.800 FPS
3873 frames in 5.0 seconds = 774.600 FPS
3867 frames in 5.0 seconds = 773.400 FPS
3871 frames in 5.0 seconds = 774.200 FPS
3844 frames in 5.0 seconds = 768.800 FPS
