Hello:
I was wondering if anyone had any experience tracking down
performance problems in chimera.
I've noticed that I am getting really sluggish performance
when managing a lot of atoms, even when everything is shown as
backbone traces only.
To take a look at the performance, I ran the benchmark and
got the following numbers:
Volume benchmark scores
surface mesh contour solid recolor
981 1291 280 589 393
Null Wire Stick BStick Ribbon Sphere Ops
6249.5
158.7 1.5 0.9 27.4 0.4 89.3
compared to a benchmark posted on the website of the same
graphics card:
2125 2026 302 512 491
213 492 452 3259 169 128
Apparently I'm getting awful benchmarks for most of the
molecule benchmarks, while the volume performance is pretty
comparable. I re-ran the molecule benchmarks to make sure they
were reproducible and got pretty much the same numbers.
Would anybody have any suggestions for figuring out what's
going on?
For reference, I'm running ubuntu 12.04 with up to date
nvidia drivers for a GTX 560 Ti.
Thanks,
Dan
