To show the benefits of GDeflate, we measured system performance without compression, with standard CPU-side decompression, and with GPU-accelerated GDeflate decompression on a representative game-focused dataset, containing texture and geometry data. In general, various data types, such as texture and geometry, compress at different ratios.

If we want to support more complex Shaders, such as Blur, Depth of Field, and other effects, we need to work with the code to build it. Next, let’s do the actual rendering implementation.

This is a challenging task, even in cinematic rendering, because it is difficult to find all the paths of light that contribute meaningfully to an image. Solving this problem through brute force requires hundreds, sometimes thousands of paths per pixel, but this is far too expensive for real-time rendering.
