Hardware Benchmarks Running UCSF Chimera

These scores measure the graphics card and CPU performance using Chimera to render volume data and molecular models. The benchmarks are run using Chimera menu entry Tools / Utilities / Benchmark.

Volume benchmarks

The volume scores (Surface, Mesh, Contour, Solid, Recolor) give the edge size of a cube shaped volume data array such that rendering or contouring or recoloring can be performed 10 times per second. Data of this size can be easily manipulated in Chimera.

Doubling a surface or mesh rendering score means rendering 4 times as many triangles or lines per second. Doubling a contouring, solid rendering or solid recoloring score means processing 8 times as many data points per second.

Molecule benchmarks

The molecule scores (Wire, Stick, BStick, Ribbon, Sphere, Ops) give the frames-per-second for molecule 1F4H in different display styles.

Results

This table includes Chimera versions 1.2525 (June 5, 2008) and later. An OpenGL optimization (vertex buffer objects) was added in this release that speeds up surface and mesh rendering. The optimization is present on all platforms except Mac X11. Older scores.

Notes

(1) Peak frame rate is limited in molecule benchmarks to 60 frames per second because of synchronization to the display refresh rate.

(2) CPU and graphics both overclocked.

(3) Low surface/mesh scores probably because the machine was being used for other tasks while benchmarks were running. Detailed scores showed larger test sizes producing faster frame rates.

(4) Solid benchmark ran out of memory on sizes larger than the reported score (32-bit Chimera limitation).

(5) In Chimera 1.7 prerelease build 36643 (June 12, 2012) atom and bond drawing was changed to use vertex buffer objects giving a more than 10x speed-up in sphere, ball and stick, and stick benchmarks. I Chimera 1.7 prerelease build 36423 (May 9, 2012) ribbon drawing was changed to use OpenGL vertex buffer objects giving a speed-up of more than 10x in the ribbon benchmark.

(6) The Quadro 6000 froze for 30 seconds on zooming 1f4h shown as stick, but not wire. Solid volume frame rate for a 512^3 was 40 frames / second if shown 200 pixels wide on screen and dropped to 6 frames/sec when 600 pixels wide and dropped to 1 frame/sec zoomed 1200 pixels wide in a 1024 by 1024 window. Zooming freezes observed with Chimera 1.6.2 but not 1.7 daily build. Slow solid volume observed for both versions. Chimera 1.7 failed to start with a can't set pixel format message. Starting the debug version would work without error. Rebooting the machine was needed. Picking in Chimera 1.7 introduced minute long freezes, but not in Chimera 1.6. In summary the driver was buggy and unusable. Driver version was NVIDIA 301.42.

(7) The solid benchmark sometimes reports incorrect high scores, for example 10000, I believe because the texture allocation failed and Chimera is merely drawing a yellow outline box instead of drawing the data. This doesn't cause a memory allocation error trying to make the large cube of data because only a single plane is allocated, since all are identical. Currently don't have a way to ask if the texture allocation failed.
