Hyrule Field Slowdown Observation

[spellforce]

umm,He try to show us that there're so many of "Texture Environment " to compute.If we cut it off there will be speed up.
so the way to compute geometry maybe need to re-think to reduce the use of "Texture Environment " or re-check if it buggy somewhere for Hyrule case.

I am focusing on the FIFO which is upstream of this stuff in the patch. The FIFO work I am doing would make Dolphin more compatible and accurate. It is unlikely to speed up the emulator (though that cannot be ruled out yet). Also, I have hit a roadblock so progress has stalled, hopefully not stopped.

Any work or discoveries in speeding up this area is welcomed. I am not the best person to analyse this patch as the texenv is not my area of expertise. Rodolfoosvaldobogado would probably be better able to make a judgement call or give more ideas on this one.

Nice Skid, hope works out

For anyone else looking to have a test i have uploaded both x32/X64 builds of R5413 with the patch.

X32 Build http://www.mediafire.com/?yylvdtn3ogy

X64 Build http://www.mediafire.com/?zkjjmjko0m2

With my rig i jumped from 12fps to 19/20fps and didnt really notice any text issues.

Nice!!

DAMN nice build!

jumping from 20 FPS to 30(fullspeed) in hyrule field! using an E8400 @ 4ghz. i did not see any glitches or something.

My profile says "Li" instead of "Link", but nice speedup

Aww, come on, can any1 make a 32bit build??? It would be awesome.

Thank you for making the 32bit version.

Yay, it's really give me nice boost, from 8-9FPS to 14-15FPS in Hyrule field (CPU E2180@2.6ghz), enough for me to star my bug hunting. BTW, I notice some missing warp marks on the map.

No luck for me, vps stay the same (hovering about 50-55)

Thanks for posting the build though, I'll see if I miss some config.

It probably has a speedup since not as many textures are being rendered in the environment and flushed. As soon as you add that +32 at the end of BPMEM_TEV_COLOR_ENV to fix the textures, Hyrule Field becomes just as slow as without the patch.
