4.36 Incredible Performance Boost

@Seifer
Hmm, while R9 3950X is not the mightiest kid around anymore, FPS for such rig are still a bit low. May I ask what is current bottleneck? IIRC BMS performance doesn’t scale that well with more CPU cores, any ideas to change the situation? -
AFAIK single core CPU performance is still the most “limiting” factor for Falcon BMS on top-notch, modern hardware.
All the best,

Yep, however BMS is already multithreaded it just doesn’t scale that well with more cores/threads.
I’m curious what is main limiting factor here for performance -
@Xeno biggest bottleneck is LOD tree traversal, which is serialized and not cached.
-
@Seifer
I wonder how other sim/games deal with the problem, BMS scene isn’t that much complex compared to modern titles. I hope you guys find clever way to deal with this issue. -
Do not misinterpret @Seifer as saying we should turn off trees.
-
@Xeno we already have a new database format that is more efficient than current one. The idea is to try to bring it to the next big version, but we will see.

** looks around in guilt as he turns trees back on…

Cool, tho it sounds like quite disruptive change to modelers toolchain. Also it would mean whole models db has to be either converted or rebuild from scratch. I can kinda feel your (team) pain.
OTOH it has to be done at some point so take your time and do whatever needed.
I’m damn sure perf gain will be much appreciated. Esp when 4.37 is supposed to be more taxing on hardware. -
