Pic Description: While looking for something else --Seems I DID get PhilC''s $$ PHI Builder several years ago !!-- I came across Jim Burton''s classic P3/P4 render test PZ3 from ~2002.

I''ve no idea where I got it, neither SCG nor R**y sites'' ''search'' recognise it, even a full-on Google found only mentions of folk mentioning it, without sources...

Any clues to current down-load location ??

Upside, I got some very interesting Superfly timings.
Downside, Firefly misbehaved, will investigate tomorrow.

765x640, timing seconds +/- 1

GTX 750 Ti (640 core, 2048 MB)
133 superfly pixel 24 progressive pts 576 bucket 1200 twin cards
133 superfly pixel 24 progressive pts 576 bucket 1024 twin cards
140 superfly pixel 24 progressive pts 576 bucket 512 twin cards
142 superfly pixel 24 progressive pts 576 bucket 64 twin cards

Note bucket count''s scant difference on this render, but overall 2½ ~3 x speed of CPU...

AMD FX 8350 quad-twin cores, 4GHz nominal NOT Over-Clocked

340 superfly pixel 24 progressive pts 576 bucket 16 CPU
361 superfly pixel 24 progressive pts 576 bucket 64 CPU
380 superfly pixel 24 progressive pts 576 bucket 8 CPU
N/A superfly pixel 24 progressive pts 576 bucket 1024 CPU too slow

Sweet spot seems ~16 buckets, but will add a few more timings tomorrow as my antihistamines have just set in...

A happy bunch for being let out again.

I've found that to do well with any figure you really need to have a passion for that figure,

...and I hope you develop that passion for yours.
