- Subject: [MANTA] Rendering to buffer for benchmarking Manta
- Date: Tue, 27 Feb 2007 14:14:26 +0000
Hi there
We are benchmarking Manta on an SGI Prism and would like to be able to render
to buffer but not display the image. According to the Manta Wiki you can do
this using "-imagedisplay null". However, this creates a window and then
appears
to 'hang' when we run it.
Could you confirm if this the correct behaviour ?
We were also considering using the "-imagedisplay file" option to output the
frame buffers to .tga file format but the Wiki documentation says "This is
extremely expensive."
Would you be able to advise us which of the above to use when measuring render
times with different polygonal datasets ?
Thanks
