SPECviewperf^® 2020 Results

Composite Scores

SPECviewperf measures the frame rate, or frames per second (FPS), at which your graphics card can render scenes across a wide variety of applications and usage models. Each viewset represents an application or a usage model, and each composite score below is based on a weighted geometric mean of many different scenes and rendering modes.

The results table above includes the details about each test within a viewset. Viewsets are often comprised of many tests which produce a frame rate. Frame rate is computed as the average Frames Per Second (FPS), or the total number of frames rendered divided by the time in seconds to render those frames. These FPS values are then used to compute the composite score using the weights for each test.

creo-03

The creo-03 viewset was created from traces of the graphics workload generated by the Creo 4™ application from PTC. Model sizes range from 20 to 48 million vertices. The viewsets include numerous rendering modes supported by the application. Order-independent transparency is enabled for all models with transparent components.

creo-03 composite score: 84.79

The composite score is a weighted geometric mean of the subtest scores. See the table below for subtest weights and FPS scores for this run.

energy-03

The energy-03 viewset is based on rendering techniques used by the open-source OpendTect seismic visualization application. Similar to medical imaging such as MRI or CT, geophysical surveys generate image slices through the subsurface that are built into a 3D grid. Volume rendering provides a 2D projection of this 3D volumetric grid for further analysis and interpretation. In addition to the volume rendering, the test includes both inline and crossline planes (slices in the X and Y planes). Also, for some subtests, “horizons” are present – these are geological strata boundaries of interest, generated by exploration geophysicists, and are rendered using textured triangle strips. The 3D datasets used in this viewset are real-world seismic datasets found at https://wiki.seg.org/wiki/Open_data". They were translated from their native SEG-Y format and compressed using JPEG-2000. Note: subtests 3 and 6 will have a score of 0.01 on GPUs with less than 3584MB (3.5GB) of framebuffer memory.

energy-03 composite score: 20.19

medical-03

The medical-03 viewset demonstrates the performance of several medical visualization volume rendering techniques. The first is "slice rendering", where many 2D slices are projected through the volume and composited on the screen. The second is "raycasting" where rays are projected through the volume accumulating the final pixel color. Two different transfer functions are used: 1D, where the density is used to look up each voxel color, and 2D, where density and gradient magnitude are used to look up each voxel color. A clipping plane is used in several tests. The Tuvok visualization library is used for rendering.

medical-03 composite score: 36.90

The composite score is a weighted geometric mean of the subtest scores. See the table below for subtest weights and FPS scores for this run.
