Fixed bug #1026
Vittorio Giovara 2010-07-16 19:09:28 PDT
i was reading SDL_renderer_gles and i noticed that every time we there
is some gl call the gl state is modified with a couple of
glEnableClientState()/glDisableClientState.
While this is completely fine for desktops systems, this is a major
performace kill on mobile devices, right where opengles is
implemented.
Normal practice in this case is to update the glstate once, keep it
always the same and disable/enable other states only in very special
occasions.
On the web there's plenty of documentation (on the top of my head
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/3DDrawing/Conceptual/OpenGLES_ProgrammingGuide/Performance/Performance.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008793-CH105-SW5
) and i personally tried this.
I modified my code and got a 10 fps boost, then modified SDL_render_gles and
shifted from 40 fps to 50 fps alone -- considering that i started from ~30fps i
got an 80% performance increase with this technique.
I have attached a dif of my changes, hope that it will be included in
mainstream.

SDL on BeOS R5 ============== You can build SDL on BeOS like any other GNU style package. e.g. ./configure && make && make install By default it is installed in /boot/develop/tools/gnupro/{bin,lib,etc.} Once you install SDL, you need to copy libSDL.so to /boot/home/config/lib, so it can be found by the dynamic linker. Enjoy! Sam Lantinga (slouken@libsdl.org)
