[Variants workgroupOpInThread] 1. Current single ADD(1) x16 times(simd=16) => 408ms => [Result: 1.608 Msum/S] 2. OP DP4(4) + ADD(1) x4 times (simd=16) => 384ms => [Result: 1.707 Msum/S] 3. OP ADD(4) + ADD(1) x4 times (simd=16) => 378ms => [Result: 1.730 Msum/S] No call to workgroupOpInThread => 347ms => [Result: 1.886 Msum/S]. The improvement of ADD(4) in the function workgroupOpInThread is thus out of 347ms to 408ms at 378ms hence from ~60ms to 30ms. Using DP4(4) achieves about the same improvement or bellow ADD(4) but has restrictions in data type (can only be float). I conclude that 3. is the best variant of choice out of the 3 variants. _______________________________________________ Beignet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/beignet
