Quote - Well, it's obvious that Poser 8's multithreading algorithm is better, so i think it's kinda pointless to show the obvious... If other parts of the code have been improved is more interesting.
It's not that obvious at all. If you read the threads on Poser 8 all it tells you about the rendering is that it is faster. Some say a bit faster, others state it's been improved. Then you have people who say it's much faster and then again others to claim it's really a lot faster.
All great terms but they do not tell how much faster it really is..... you comparing for that. For me personally, faster is a term that's way to broad, it's very unspecific. Before getting P8 I asked for some comparing numbers, but no one actually did the real timing. If I didn't get the $1.99 deal, I would still be wondering how much faster P8 really renders. As soon as I got P8, I timed the renders and posted them here.
I'm just trying to give a face to the improvement, hope at least some will find it helpful.
Even if it's obvious that Poser 8's multithreading algorithm is better, I was very suprised that in most cases it is 100% faster then before and in complex scenes you can even see up to 600%. That's not obvious when stating that obvious that Poser 8's multithreading algorithm is better, The numbers give color to the statement and show what the statement really entails.
When I do buy a new car, I don't want to hear that it's faster then my old one, I want to know how much faster it is. I don't want to hear that it uses less fuel, I want to know how much less fuel it uses. I like to know the numbers and for me it's the same with Poser.
