V2.03 Vs. 1.1.18

[Rafaello]

Well I have some test results with a core 2 quad Q6660 4 Gb Ram:

Indigo 2.03 10 hours 20 minutes 4,236 samples/s





Indigo 1.1.18 10 hours 12 minutes 142,075 samples/s



for me 2.03 is too slower

This are some hard Numbers Rafaello and even harder images

For me the 64 bit Build was about 13% slower on a quick 100 spp test, maybe the 32bit build is more evil here?!

Afaik Ono did a bunch of SSE related optimizations for the 2.xx build... maybe something went terribly wrong there! Since Ono is on a 64bit Vista too, he maybe don't recognized this...

More Benchmarks would be nice here guys, keep them coming!

I work in Xp 64 and feel so sad either, I hope Ono and Benn can think about continue the developement of 1.1.18 for the commercial purposes aswell, I think everyone want great images in less time.
I don't know about speed and quality in simple scenes, this one has nearly 8 million vertices.

Hi Rafaello,
Can you send me the scene so I can analyse it?
How big is the scene in MB?
If it's smaller than 5MB you could send it to nick@indigorenderer.com
thanks.

Sorry Ono the files of the igs scene are 91 Mb big and the C4D scene is 99 Mb, so I can't send you the files by email. I will try to upload the files to rapidshare monday morning (here in México).

[Rafaello]

I don't know why the last post appeared as guest, the post is mine. I will make some tests with a little light scene an will tell you what happens.

Hi Rafaello,
Yup, it would be great if you could upload the file to rapidshare or something similar, like http://drop.io/

Thanks!

This bug was fixed in version 2.0.5, thanks for bug report Rafaello!

Happy to be usefull
