Phoronix: Mesa's Gallium HUD Gets A Simple Option

The Gallium3D Heads-Up Display (HUD) has matured into quite a useful option for Mesa users over the past several years. There is now a Gallium HUD "simple" option...

Is it possible to get a different font in the HUD? (especially anti-aliased)

Very good however minimal with fps, cpu load, gpu load and temperature will be awesome

Very good addition indeed, I like that much better than those clunky graphs anyway.

And the best thing is: we still have *both*.

Really nice, but a bit of a pity that it's just for Gallium and not all Mesa drivers. Frametime graph (rendertime of each frame visualized and not just fps) would also be a really cool feature.

Very cool. Is there a way to read PCIe bandwidth, whether that be GT/s, Gbps, or a percentage? There are a lot of options and I'm not sure if any of them do what I'm looking for. This metric is probably what I find to be most important for this BOINC rig I have.

Michael you can put multiple sensors/readouts into one graph, just so that's said. It's decided by wether you use + or , to separate the readouts.

I still hope someone will make a radv HUD, or even generic Vulkan layer HUD that would work with any driver.

I quite like the graphs, because they show change over time (which you can align to different things happening in your test). But simple HUD is surely useful too.

It's using a bitmap font I think.
