Hello, I am interested in taking part in the Google Summer of Code 2012. I have an idea of my own but I'm not sure if it's attractive enough or if it isn't being implemented at the moment by someone else. The idea is on a very early stage but I would be very glad to hear your opinion on it. It's "

That's the life of writing in a C-based language. Compilation takes a bit of time. If you are on a Mac, use LLVM, as it speeds things up a great deal. Qt has a couple of different ways to handle concurrency. If you think that there are specific places that would benefit from this, please enumer

@Brady: I think I wrote something wrong in the original idea, my idea was to load object files in one separate thread (Because they are very big , in a way they consume much I/O than regular process) , I tried this on a simple example on my computer and fps improved by 11 frames in multi threaded

I don't know what exactly you want to do with the multi-threading, but just drawing two objects in two threads simultaneously to the same context won't improve performance; I'm pretty sure it won't work at all. I _believe_ you can do other things in a separate thread and a separate context (like lo

From what I have read, multithreaded OpenGL is something Qt introduced in version 4.8 only. And maybe it is restricted to the OpenGL2 paint engine, so no safe-mode... http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2011/06/03/threaded-opengl-in-4-8/ HTH, G. On So, 25.03.2012, 18:08, Alexander Wolf wrote: > 2012/3/25 N
