client performance in Xfree/Xorg

Post by Coppa »

I have used x11perf -line500 to test for 2d drawing speed for lines in X. When you test with this, turn off all disturbing applications and audio. Report the last line, which is the average over 5 measurements.

Some of my results:
200 Mhz Pentium MMX with ATI 1 Mb gfx card (1024x768x8bit):
26800.0 lines/sec
300 Mhz PII with Voodoo2 Banshee (1280x1024x16bit):
around 70000.0 lines/sec (around 30000 without gfx acceleration)
300 Mhz PII with Geforce 2 (1280x1024x16bit):
210000.0 lines/sec

All results on Xfree versions 4.0-around 4.3

400000 reps @ 0.0122 msec ( 81900.0/sec): 500-pixel line
On my laptop (1) with intel video, should be much better, due to bugs in intel xorg driver in Debian Lenny.
I think one of my old machines (2) with NVidia Vanta Lite 16 MB did better :)

Same on another laptop (3) with intel video and lenny:
400000 reps @ 0.0131 msec ( 76200.0/sec): 500-pixel line

2000000 reps @ 0.0046 msec (220000.0/sec): 500-pixel line
On old machine(2.4 GHz Celeron times) with NVidia GeForce FX5200 128 MB (4)

glxgears for results for (1) and (3)
4164 frames in 5.0 seconds = 832.710 FPS

3098 frames in 5.0 seconds = 619.570 FPS

for machine (4) around 900-1000 FPS
