Macro Assembler for the Raspberry Pi GPU
- paulmd 12y agoVery cool - I've been waiting for someone to figure out GPU computing on the Rpi for a while now. This is potentially a very substantial increase in available processing power. I don't see performance numbers there - could someone with a Pi please run the FFT and compare against a CPU implementation? I wonder how similar the Mali design would be. Obviously the technical details will be different, but would it be similar in broad strokes? Most Rpi-alikes have Mali 400s or 450s.
- Narishma 12y agoThe RPi blog post about it [1] says about 10x improvement in performance over an ARM version. I haven't tested it myself but it seems reasonable. 1: http://www.raspberrypi.org/new-qpu-macro-assembler/ http://www.raspberrypi.org/new-qpu-macro-assembler/
