| Summary | 0003394: Enabling sounds descreases performance a lot | ||||
| Description | I'm using pure Alsa and Spring 88.0 (OMP) on EeePC. Everything works OK until I allow OpenAl to use Alsa (without it I don't have sounds /etc/openal/alsoft.conf -> drivers = wave change to drivers = alsa,oss vs) Without sounds, spring is working on 1280x960 in around 40 FPS (low quality but playable!!!). With sounds it drops to 5 FPS and sound is "discontinuous". Graphic is chopping like a bunny. It is pity that such great effort of game performance is lost just by audio handling. Spring can work even on netbook with Atom processor and some NVidia graphic card. I don't have pulseaudio installed. I an provide some profiling if needed (just point me instructions). | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | It happens also with pulseaudio, but I did'nt use it in my setup. Pure Alsa and OpenAl on slower computers like EeePC (I bet that it can be any Atom processor), nothing special. Efects visible right after game start. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| Checked infolog.txt for Errors | |||||

do you have the problem with the current version of spring (91.0), too? |
|
|
I will have to compile new version because it is not available in fedora repository. I will give answer after this weekend. |
|
|
attaching infolog.txt would maybe help, too. we had some similar performance problems when some openal feature was enabled. you can/could try to set UseEFX = 0 but i'm not sure how long this config setting exists. |
