Phoronix: Marek Makes MSAA R300 Performance Optimizations

Recently there was finally MSAA support added to the R300 Gallium3D driver. While multi-sample anti-aliasing finally made it to this open-source GPU driver that supports the old ATI R300 through R500 GPUs, benchmarks I did last week showed the R300 MSAA performance was a mess. Fortunately, Marek Olšák has made some significant performance optimizations to the R300g MSAA support...

Oh cool. Hope this means you'll like the attention enough to keep up the amazing work. You've been doing amazing work. I'm no guru, but I looked at the code and it's pretty nice. It's very readable even though it's quite a bit beyond me.

Seconded. I hope you know how much your work & time is appreciated Marek!

And you've got good right to do so.
Even though I never use antialiasing (actually, since I like pixels and since it always made things look unsharp and blurred so I thought I needed some glasses) I really appreciate this work. Especially that there is care also for elderly chips.

Thanks Marek, you rock, keep up the great work.

Marek, where do I send you booze and women of loose morals?

Show this man some love, he deserves it.
