Resource allocation and destruction Creating and destroying buffers, textures, and shaders is fundamental to efficient computer graphics. Recommended Use a dedicated thread for resource creation to avoid hidden OS costs and blocking frame rendering, as this can result in costly OS paging work.

SER is a performance optimization that unlocks the potential for better ray and memory coherency in ray tracing shaders and thus increased shading efficiency. Background Shading divergence is a long-standing problem in ray tracing. Init(D3D12_DESCRIPTOR_RANGE_TYPE_UAV, 1, 0); // output texture ranges[1].Init(D3D12_DESCRIPTOR_RANGE_TYPE_SRV,

GPU Trace can measure total instructions, but a per-shader stage decomposition is only available in the Occupancy chart. On modern GPUs, the L1TEX cache is a combined L1 Data Cache that contains a Load/Store Unit + Texture Unit. Despite the short name “L1”, it includes Texture as well. What about the Shader Profiler?

Instead of computing the amount of light that reaches a certain surface every frame for every light source, we precompute all this information and store it in a single texture. The main goal of my GSoC project is to completely rewrite the light mapper in Godot and, instead of a voxel approach, use ray tracing to compute the scene lighting.
