Changed LightTree traversal to be a bit better in its choices.
...
After some experimentation, it's pretty clear that the LightTree
performs a lot better with a model of spherical _volume_ light
sources. This makes sense considering that generally they
represent a distribution of other lights in space.
This is a quick hack to make it behave a bit more like that. But
the long-term solution will be to adjust how
estimate_eval_over_solid_angle() of surface closures is implemented.

Implemented alternative SAH split that uses off-axis split planes.
...
It doesn't seem to actually perform better, generally, but I'm
leaving it in for future reference for other things.

This gets rid of a crate dependency, and also is faster.

Minor optimization in the transform stack.
...
Got rid of the scratch space by writing directly into the main
stack vector when merging transforms. Involves a small bit of
unsafe code.

code.

Fixed bug in PsychoBlend.

On some systems Python would complain about the "progress"
variable being accessed without it existing yet. Weird. But
this fixes it.

Optional use of SIMD intrinsics, via feature in cargo.

Use simple if-statement-based min/max functions in hot code.

Again, for whatever reason this is notably faster than the stdlib
min/max functions.

Use fast approximate exp functions for XYZ color curves.

This brings a significant performance improvement, and doesn't
appear to have any visual impact.

Got rid of UnsafeCell in Tracer.
...
To do this, I moved the accel rays into an outer struct, which
then calls the main tracing code as an inner struct.

Sped up min and max functions in Float4.
...
Turns out that the standard min/max functions were slow for
some reason, and simple if statements are much faster. This
simple change improves render times by over 30%. Crazy.

Implemented SAH splitting for the BVH. Also fixed crash bug.
...
The bug was in the previous commit, where I thought I was
preventing out-of-bounds access during traversal by limiting
the tree depth. While the idea was correct, I forgot that the
traversal stack needs _2_ extra slots on top of the tree depth,
not just 1. Fixed.

Special case BVH building when we get too close to max depth.
...
This avoids exceeding max BVH depth even in pathological cases.
Still need improve non-worst case building, but this at least
prevents crashes in worst case.
2016-07-16 00:05:23 -07:00
c372d485e2
Fix bug in PsychoBlend where render hangs.
...
This was because it was taking the standard input from Psychopath,
but was buffering it and not reading it. The percentage complete
printouts would fill the buffer in some cases, and cause the
process to not exit since not all stdout had been handled.
2016-07-10 19:31:26 -07:00

Make BVH traversal stack bigger.

This is a stop-gap for a less-than ideal BVH construction. It
should be reduced again once the BVH building is made less stupid.
