  • INMOS occam raytracer on a simulated T800 network

    From pahihu@21:1/5 to All on Thu Apr 6 01:47:50 2023
    Hi,

    I've run Mike's INMOS occam raytracer (https://bitbucket.org/transputer/raytracer/src/master/) on a 16 core Linux virtual machine, using Highfield's T4 simulator in T800 mode (https://github.com/pahihu/t4).

    With 16 simulated processors, the models are processed between 3.2 and 14.4 seconds.

    Regards,

    Hi,

    With the updated shared memory link drivers, the models are
    processed with 16 simulated processors between 1.6 and 9.0 seconds.

    Linux and Windows binaries are provided, macOS and Raspberry Pi is on the go.
