GSdx-ogl speed increase

[gregory]

Aactually no I don't know. Code seems fine.

I tried KOF 2006, and Odin Sphere, but I didn't notice any speed differences in those games.

KOF 4x mesa
off = 16-17fps
on = 16-17fps

Odin Sphere 4x mesa
off = 30-31fps
on = 30-31fps

KOF 4x fglrx
off = 23-24fps
on = 23-24fps

Odin Sphere 4x fglrx
off = 45-46fps
on = 45-46fps

Please try with a smaller scaling.

Edit how do your gpu compare to a gtx760

[rLoke]

It's much weaker. It's about equal to a Nvidia 745m.

I'll try some more tests later tonight I have some family coming over right now.

Also here are the debug logs from when I would get the green to red gradient on fglrx when using the debug build. I forgot to include the yesterday.

Code:

This is only the first 10 messages out of 3000+ but they are all the same after the first.

[gregory]

Thanks for the log. I will try to fix that.

Here are my results for KOF 2006 with latest master
FGLRX
Native
off = 53-54
on = 53-54

2x
off = 53-54
on = 53-54

3x
off = 53-54
on = 53-54

Mesa
Native
off = 52-53
on = 53-54

2x
off = 52-53
on = 53-54

3x
off = 46-47
on = 46-47

[gregory]

So either the game uses few polygons. Either driver is already optimized for memory transfers

[gregory]

Could you give a try of last version. Normally I must have fixed the spamming log (file was renamed GSdx_opengl_debug.txt)

[refraction]

KOF is 2d

[gregory]

Oh. So it is GPU limited. Maybe I can improve texture transfer for 2d games but first vertex.
