[Opensim-dev] Feature Proposal: BulletSim GPU Acceleration via OpenCL

2013-09-10 Thread Sean McNamara
Hi, all. I think my proposal mostly speaks for itself, so I won't belabor the point in this email. Suffice it to say, if you are interested in performance of OpenSimulator, and in particular physical objects performance, please check out my feature proposal here and provide feedback, either by edi

A quick reply, i see one problem. most of the servers (inlcudeing mine) dont have realy openCL support. So not sure what benneifit you want to get from openCL if the GPU dont support it. On 2013-09-10 19:30, Sean McNamara wrote: Hi, all. I think my proposal mostly speaks for itself, so I won'

I would hazard a guess that DSG would benefit from OpenCL-enabled physics, as physics chunks with higher requirements could be sent over to a server with appropriate hardware, while the less taxing chunks could be sent to "standard" servers. ~ Marv. On 10/09/2013 19:02, Sean McNamara wrote:
