01:29.15 tegtmeye yo justin, your raytracer is giving me headache
01:29.26 Twingy woah :)
01:29.36 Twingy just got a new set of tires and shoes
01:29.52 Twingy can I help?
01:30.24 tegtmeye got the benchmark to run on mac with the blender file and...
01:30.39 Twingy the benchmark might not run since your .map file is not binary
01:30.39 tegtmeye 3.8 milllliiioooon rays/sec of nothing
01:30.51 Twingy I have to update the python script to do binary .map
01:30.58 Twingy only g-adrt does it right now
01:31.04 Twingy but you don't care about the .map file
01:31.34 Twingy if you get sean to add you to developer list
01:31.38 Twingy I could make the changes quicklike
01:31.38 tegtmeye no but, I'd like to have some indication everything is working alright...
01:31.43 Twingy right
01:31.48 Twingy let me update the python script...
01:31.54 Twingy I can post it on my webserver or somphin
01:32.05 tegtmeye I am a dev on brlcad now...
01:32.08 Twingy ah
01:32.12 Twingy okay, that makes like easier
01:32.27 Twingy and you copied the camera line into the .frames file?
01:32.37 tegtmeye yea, didn't matter where I put it
01:32.55 tegtmeye I did manage to render some crap though...
01:33.06 Twingy k, lemme update my python script and test here
01:33.06 tegtmeye lots of pretty colors...
01:33.12 Twingy after I verify it's working I'll let you try
01:33.15 Twingy gimme like 5-10 mins
01:33.18 tegtmeye kl
01:39.26 Twingy testing
01:43.33 CIA-5 BRL-CAD: 03twingy * 10brlcad/src/adrt/scripts/adrt.py: uses binary .map file now
01:43.37 Twingy need to test matrix thingy
01:47.44 Twingy uno momento por favor
01:47.51 tegtmeye k
01:48.47 Twingy this thing is running surprisingly stable at 3.486ghz
01:49.16 Twingy granted I got the voltages cranked up
01:49.24 tegtmeye what is it? a 16F877?
01:49.40 Twingy CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz (3486.49-MHz 686-class CPU)
01:50.01 tegtmeye You would have impressed me more if it was a PIC
01:50.20 learner heh
01:50.35 Twingy I don't think the gate lengths are short enough :(
01:51.04 Twingy with a little luck I might be able to get one going at 50 or 60mhz though
01:51.05 tegtmeye 80 millimeters, 80 nanometers, whats the difference
01:51.21 Twingy maybe just high enough to screw with your radio
01:51.34 tegtmeye lol
01:53.11 Twingy k, jus aboot done here eh
01:53.46 Twingy jeepers
01:54.44 Twingy oooh

01:55.25 Twingy ah, found a buggie
01:55.38 tegtmeye elaborate...
01:55.41 Twingy wasn't null terminating a string in python exporter
01:55.58 Twingy have to pack a 0 after I pack the string name
02:00.14 CIA-5 BRL-CAD: 03twingy * 10brlcad/src/adrt/scripts/adrt.py: fixed string termination on mesh name
02:00.28 Twingy okay
02:00.29 Twingy try that
02:00.38 tegtmeye k, gimme a sec...
02:00.39 Twingy you want a .blend?

02:16.55 Twingy I guess you can poke at it tommorrow
02:17.08 Twingy I'm done my accomplishments, so I'll have a few hours to write code this week
02:17.32 tegtmeye yea, I'm goingt to let sean's commits compile overnight...
02:17.39 Twingy hehe
02:17.43 tegtmeye and look at this again over "lunch"
02:17.53 Twingy you just need a 12401925 cpu altix
02:18.00 Twingy then it'll compile supah fast
02:18.33 tegtmeye or...
02:18.45 tegtmeye just drop the need to compile brlcad at all...
02:19.02 Twingy hrm... reminds me of an old version of adrt... Heretic!
02:19.21 tegtmeye lol
02:19.35 Twingy All Hail the brl-cad-ori
02:20.19 Twingy :-)
02:20.26 Twingy grumble cakes
02:20.44 tegtmeye ...just tried again using complex supermesh box geometry to no avail...
02:20.53 Twingy k, hold on a sec
02:20.57 Twingy isst is not snarfing it
02:21.02 Twingy it might not be fixed yet

19:17.19 Maloeran Eheh Justin, don't we hunt these 1% performance gains :)
19:28.25 Twingy_ they add up
19:28.27 CIA-5 BRL-CAD: 03twingy * 10brlcad/src/adrt/libutil/camera.c: removed expensive memcpy from camera ray generation, 1.4% performance boost.
19:28.58 Twingy_ 2.4% speedup today, wee
19:32.20 Maloeran Eheh, I did notice that memcpy :)
19:33.05 Twingy_ 2.64 mil/sec on my xeon box
19:34.16 Twingy_ kind of fun watching my t62 scene run at 120 fps on the cluster
19:34.20 Maloeran I have briefly started an amd64 assembly version of the ray-tracing function, but I'll write it in a more generic way, full of gas preprocessor macros to expand and cover all combinations of settings ( as the procedurally generated C versions do )
19:34.26 Twingy_ ah
19:34.39 Twingy_ fun
19:34.40 Maloeran I'm sure :), we could make that 800fps, wee
19:34.44 Twingy_ hehe
19:34.53 Twingy_ we'd probly have to start optimizing sdl
19:34.56 Twingy_ ;)
19:35.19 Twingy_ that's sad isn't it :}
19:35.54 Maloeran SDL did seem a bit slow somehow, in comparison to what I'm used to with X shared pixmaps
19:35.58 Twingy_ I just got the 2 opteron machines strapped onto a thick sturdy adjustable plastic tv cart
19:36.06 Twingy_ now I can wheel them around the compound
19:36.11 Twingy_ well
19:36.14 Maloeran Neat :}
19:36.17 Twingy_ you need to be fullscreen to get hardware acceleration
19:36.31 Maloeran I generally run my benchmarks in 1600x1200 full screen
19:36.37 Twingy_ which is why I have a fullscreen toggle
19:36.41 Twingy_ ah, k
19:36.54 Twingy_ I find that 640x480 meets my needs
19:37.28 Maloeran By the way, the last executable I sent you was optimized for P4, and was 32 bits ; somewhat slower on Opterons than it should have been o.O
19:37.35 Twingy_ that is to say, none of the analysts are complaining the resolution is too low
19:38.06 Twingy_ mal, I'll privmsg you tonight
19:38.11 Twingy_ I have more news
19:38.21 Maloeran Great, sure
