Are you sure this isn't just your system not being able to handle these more demanding scenes?
Yes and no, its probably a mixture of Xenosaga being coded poorly combined with nouveau being imperfect. I have a gtx 780 TI (GK110B) card so if it is going to work at all with nouveau it should work with my card (nvidia drivers should not be considered a solution).
After watching the discussion between Gregory and some nouveau devs at #nouveau I figured reporting this issue in full (Rather than mentioning it on irc only) might help when optimizing PCSX2 more?
Edit: Could it also be a CPU limitation? I have an AMD FX-6350.
You need a very fast CPU for these scenes. The game has several of them but the one in the intro is a good example. You can lower the accuracy options in GSdx for a slight speedup but for full speed, I'd recommend an Intel dual core or better at 3.2Ghz or better.
That might be nice for some games, but unfortunately I am not sure that is a financial reality when my motherboard has an AM3+ restriction...
Do you think this issue is worth keeping open for further optimizations? Or should it just be closed as an hardware limitation?
I will give it a look when I reboot my computer to nouveau. But not fast CPU + not fully optimized driver == likely bad performance.
That is fully understandable, but I would think that anything that can be done to improve a demanding game like Xenosaga with the given scenario would go a long way towards improving perf with PCSX2 in general? Not to mention it would be greatly appreciated. :)
Safe Accurate Blending draw primitive by primitive so yes it is slow. It is a debug option. The apitrace replay error is due to a Mesa bug => https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96358
Unfortunately, improving the speed on a game barely translate to others game. However a fast driver will help everyone ;) I'm currently looking how I can multithread GSdx. But it is weeks of work ! Texture upload is slow on the free driver. On a game that does lots of transfer it is 87 (nvidia) vs 48 (nouveau) fps. So I'm not sure MT will help if I'm stalling to upload a texture.
Could you try those option to improve speed
I have tried these:
Blending Unit Accuracy
, but does not have much impact.Geometry Shader
as off has a minor speed up.With all of this the speed up is minor at best.
However there is some noticeable difference if I disable the Geometry Shader and use the software renderer.
Fwiw, on nvidia (cpu at 3Ghz), native resolution
MT off GS on tutorial = 107 fps cutscene = 52 fps
MT off GS off tutorial = 105 fps cutscene = 52 fps
MT on GS off tutorial = 230 fps cutscene = 117 fps
MT on GS on tutorial = 228 fps cutscene = 106 fps
So yeah, Geometry Shader isn't helpful here. It would be interesting to understand when GS is useful. Potentially it could be replaced by https://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/NV/fill_rectangle.txt in future hardware. Anyway, as you see MT can provide an interesting speed boost. When I reboot I will do the test on nouveau so value can be compared apple to apple.
Oh by the way, geometry shader are only used in HW. So it mustn't have any impact for the SW renderer.
MT?
I found I could measure fps in PCSX2 if I started it with GALLIUM_HUD="fps" PCSX2
.
Non-affected areas, frame limiting off tutorial = 50+ fps cutscene = 130+ fps
Default settings tutorial = 22 fps cutscene = 11 fps
Blending Accuracy off, CRC full, GS off tutorial = 24 fps cutcscene = 13 fps
sw renderer tutorial = 50 fps cutscene = 25 fps
Nvidia supports a Multi Thread optimization. What do you mean by non-affected area.
That is the normal (Playable) fps when there is no lagging. For the cutscene its the several minutes proceeding the savestate and the tutorial its the edge of the map away from the npc Kos-mos. The issue is not always present, it will come and go.
So I tried a few new things to further improve performance.
First I enabled DRI3.
$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/nouveau-dri3.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "780Ti"
Driver "nouveau"
Option "DRI" "3"
EndSection
This was able to improve fps in the cutscene by 2-3.
Next I installed the nouveau_4.5_reclocking branch for the kernel. https://github.com/karolherbst/linux/tree/nouveau_4.5_reclocking https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Nouveau-Kernel-Spin-RC Edit: I used the wrong nouveau_reclocking branch, this is the current one, it does not make much difference in perf though (Use the Makefile in drm). https://github.com/karolherbst/nouveau/tree/stable_reclocking_kepler_v5
Default settings tutorial = 34 fps cutscene = 13-14 fps
Blending Accuracy off, CRC full, GS off tutorial = 35 fps cutcscene = 14-15 fps
Strangely enough the lagged part of the cutscene does not last nearly as long anymore. Now it only lasts for 2 lines of dialogue before speeding up to 55+ fps and then slowing down again after ~1 minute. This does not seem to change based on PCSX2 options, but I'm not sure if this is due to the change in kernel or DRI3 yet.
Could you try with/without the 8 bit texture option?
I do not enable that by default, it seems to make the game a little slower.
With: tutorial = 29 fps cutscene = 9 fps (41 after the first two lines)
Without: tutorial = 30 fps cutscene = 12 fps (47 after two lines)
@gregory38 This issue is still very much present for me, could you discuss this with the nouveau developers and see if there is anything they could do to improve this? :)
What will help is GL multithreading
pcsx2-2018.02.08_c23241c_master-x86_64-1_git
mesa-2018.02.10_831fb29_master-x86_64-1_git
So I have DRI3 enabled and rebuilt PCSX2 with -DEGL_API=ON
, I'm getting around 22 fps with full nouveau reclocking. I also tried with mesa_glthread=true
and it did not make much difference.
Ok. I think it might need my patch to allow asynchronous PBO (aka texture upload) transfer.
Do you have a link for this patch?
Check around, there are 3 patches and it is maybe not latest version. Anyway it might require a rebase. Note I don't know if someone did something for recent mesa
Rebasing the patches was pretty straight forward and then I squashed it as well. This seems to allow mesa_glthread
to work fine with PCSX2 which includes a performance boost, especially in the non-affected areas which are now well beyond full speed. However this doesn't really help that much in the affected areas where I now get around 26 fps instead of 22.
To me it seems like its hitting some really slow path in nouveau, is this a possible hypothesis?

I don't remember well what the game does but I think it doesn't fly on Nvidia too. The game likely changes state (or maybe uniforms) every draws. Surely mesa/nouveau misses some optimizations.
Note: potentially gsdx could be improved too
There was something done somewhere a long while ago that removed some of the slowdowns, but not all of them. What steps could be done to identify what the specific issue is?
The slowdown was about the emulation of the bit blending of the alpha channel. Initial code requires to draw primitive 1 by 1. However alpha channel isn't blended, just written so we could do it with 1 flush + 1 draw. Potentially the slowdown is still linked to this issue, because it triggers various state change. In particular I'm afraid that it uploads new uniform to GPU every draw.
What steps could be done to identify what the specific issue is?
Look into an apitrace to spot bad pattern, for example uniform upload/new program every draw (in short frequent state change).... Check a perf report to find where cpu cycle are spent. Well if it is a CPU issue.
Wonder if using NIR ( https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Nouveau-NIR-V2 ) NV50_PROG_USE_NIR=1 would make a difference.
I suspect the bottleneck is related to nouveau. When starting PCSX2 with this command.
mesa_glthread=true GALLIUM_HUD=fps,cpu,API-thread-offloaded-slots+API-thread-direct-slots+API-thread-num-syncs PCSX2
I found that fps is around 130 and cpu usage is pretty stable around 30. As soon as the first slowdown occurs the fps plummets and the cpu usage increases to around 40. This lasts about two lines of dialogue until the fps increases to around 70 and the cpu usage jumps to around 60. This lasts a while longer until it slows down again and returns to previous values.
Using NV50_PROG_USE_NIR=1
doesn't seem to make a difference.
I know that glsl compiler isn't on par with Nvidia (didn't test a recent version) but this scene is typically CPU/driver dependent.
I upgraded GPUs to a Radeon RX Vega 56 using amdgpu and gained around 15 fps. The first slow section is now around 45 fps, I guess this further shows this issue is CPU bound.
@gregory38 I tested this again and am now getting around 20 fps instead of the 45 fps I recorded in November 2018.
With perf top
I am noticing excessive usage with memcpy
so I replaced instances of memcpy
with memmove
in first pcsx2 which revealed a smaller second bottleneck (Not yet investigated) and then in mesa which eventually revealed this line.

After replacing that line with memmove
pcsx2 gains 10 additional fps for around a total of 30.

Could this reveal more clues about what causes these slowdowns? I am mostly recording this here so its not forgotten.
I asked about this in #radeon @ freenode and was linked this issue.

After reading it I recompiled glibc in Slackware with --enable-multi-arch
and i686
instead of i586
. The performance jumped from 20 fps to 40.

When playing
Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht
in the second cut scene (Still before the game play starts) just as the character Kos-mos is introduced for the first time the game experiences heavy video and audio lagging / stuttering. The issue persists for a while and then dissipates just to return again, this pattern repeats. In the past this was far worse and has since improved, but not enough yet to be considered playable.In the opening tutorial the game lags more the closer your approach Kos-mos and less the farther you move your character away. This issue reoccurs more or less throughout the game including map screens, battle and cut scenes.
Things I have tried:
Safe Accurate Blending
however makes it much worse.Skipdraw
of 100 does not make a difference either.Apitrace: Cut scene - http://ks392457.kimsufi.com/orbea/stuff/trace/PCSX2-Xenosaga-cutscene-bad.trace.xz Tutorial - http://ks392457.kimsufi.com/orbea/stuff/trace/PCSX2-Xenosaga-tutorial-bad.trace.xz
I suspect there is something wrong with either mesa, apitrace and / or PCSX2 since when I replay the apitrace I get a lot of new graphical issues and a lot ofEdit:Mesa: User error: GL_INVALID_OPERATION in glValidateProgramPipeline failed to validate the pipeline
. The second trace looks especially amusing / broken... In the past when I made traces with PCSX2 and Xenosaga they replayed normally.apitrace replay --benchmark
will replay the traces properly.Multiple frame GS dump: Cut scene - http://ks392457.kimsufi.com/orbea/stuff/games/pcsx2/snaps/gsdx_Xenosaga_cutscene_20160611125248.gs.xz Tutorial - http://ks392457.kimsufi.com/orbea/stuff/games/pcsx2/snaps/gsdx_Xenosaga_tutorial_20160611130210.gs.xz
