Slow animation #154

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I am using a custom log that is relatively small (200 lines).  Running on 
windows 7-x64 w/8 cores and 4 Gb mem.

gource -s 0.1  --bloom-intensity 1 --auto-skip-seconds 0.01 --output-framerate 
60 --camera-mode track --log-format custom masterlog.log

The animation starts fast with all the directory names (the way I like it) but 
then it start slowing down significantly. 
1.  There are also some sections where no activity takes place so I added the 
switch (--auto-skip-seconds 0.1) but does not seem to improve. How can I go 
faster and skip all the inactivity (boring stuff)?
2.  The CPU is only used 10% and less than 1 GB of memory used.   Is the 
slowness due to video (GForce nvidia) I ma using?

Any help is greatly appreciated

When you say slow animation do you mean the framerate? (press Q and the FPS is 
printed in the corner). Could possibly be due to vsync (try --no-vsync).

If it is rendering some massive scene (eg Linux kernel scale project or larger) 
then yes the bottle neck could potentially be the video card. What kind of 
GForce is it?

Are you encoding a video at the same time?
