    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 Ol??k has made some significant performance optimizations to the R300g MSAA support...

      Nice job marek (and thank you), as always. Is it still weird seeing your name in headlines? haha

          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.

              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.
              Stop TCPA, stupid software patents and corrupt politicians!
