Hi, I bought new HW Dell XPS 15 9560 with dual graphics: 1. Intel(R) HD Graphics 630 (Kaby Lake GT2) 2. GeForce GTX 1050/PCIe/SSE2 I've installed Tumbleweed with bumblebee and proprietary nvidia driver 381.22. Everything seems work, but I don't understand some results. I start with simple glxgears Running synchronized to the vertical refresh. The framerate should be approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate. 422 frames in 5.0 seconds = 84.255 FPS 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.994 FPS 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.999 FPS 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.997 FPS 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.996 FPS optirun glxgears 11569 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2313.779 FPS 9155 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1830.960 FPS 9769 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1953.718 FPS 9915 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1983.000 FPS 9133 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1826.520 FPS It looks reasonable. Intel runs with vsync. Then: glxgears -fullscreen Running synchronized to the vertical refresh. The framerate should be approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate. 303 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.412 FPS 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.995 FPS 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.993 FPS optirun glxgears -fullscreen 236 frames in 5.0 seconds = 47.195 FPS 247 frames in 5.0 seconds = 49.213 FPS 243 frames in 5.0 seconds = 48.494 FPS This is what I don't understand. In fullscreen mode nvidia has really bad results. It's same or even worse with glxspheres. Another example is Unigine heaven benchmark. Same setup on same hardware I get e.g. 110 FPS on Windows 10 home and about 20 FPS on Linux with optirun heaven. It looks like Intel graphics works well but nvidia doesn't. Can somebody explain me what can be wrong? thank you, m. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

one thing - have you tried using primusrun, too? Especially for the unigine benchmarks I had noticed quite a penalty (some 30% slower) for optirun... And testing the commands as you specified I notice a hell lot of artifacts in the fullscreen run with optirun that are not there with primusrun.

In my case primusrun itself doesn't work (doesn't switch card on nor use it when it's enabled manually). Don't know why, never investigated. But "optirun -b primus ..." works with most high framerate on complex and large scenes. If you'll change in /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf Bridge=auto to Bridge=primus in [optirun] section, you'll have no need to add -b primus every time. -- Kind regards, Mykola Krachkovsky -- Найкращі побажання, Микола Крачковський

Thanks for answers, I tried optirun -b primus glxspheres and result is same. It's slow.
