Given this speed up with ANE, I think DXO exporting would be about similar speed on M1 Pro, with M1 Max doing another speedup using the GPU path again. ON my M1 machine I saw the time sped up from using the GPU having 20 MP RAW files from 17-21 secs down to 7-10 seconds.īut the key part is that since ANE is a different circuitry in the chip, the GPU is now pretty much idle while these exports go on.
If you had not posted your times I probably would not have even thought about testing the trials, so thank you.If you use DXO and have an M1 Mac, upgrade to PhotoLab 5 if you are using DeepPRIME noise reduction. I wonder if the same is true for Gigapixel. So the problem all along has been that the older Sharpen AI app was just too slow and they have improved that. Times for Focus, Motion and Softness were 0:31, 0:31 and 0:12. I then changed to Sharpen and the time decreased to 0:45. For one thing I changed the setting from Enable discrete GPU ON to OFF, and the Stablize time decreased to 1:45. I forgot to mention that the Sharpen AI setting was for Stabilize, not Sharpen or Focus. Sharpen, on the other hand, is something I would use more frequently if it did not take so long to process. I don’t generally enlarge photos, so the fact that Gigapixel takes “forever” to process my images on my machine is not a real issue for me. Newer versions might be considerably faster and if your testing was using newer versions I could download the trials and see how they run. Gigapixel is the 2020 version, 5.1.7, and Sharpen is 2.1.8. The first was done using Gigapixel as an external editor for PhotoLine and the second used Gigapixel as a stand-alone app. a 16MP jpg from my wife’s Nikon point-and-shoot took a bit more than 4 1/2 minutes for the same 2x upscale.
I assumed it might be faster on a smaller jpg I also timed it as well. Gigapixel, on a 20MB 16 bit tiff, took just short of 6 minutes with the default settings and the upscale set to 2x. I tested it on the Gigapixel output and that took almost 5 minutes.
Sharpen, on a 20MP 16bit tiff, took about 3 1/2 minutes, so my “guess” of about 1 minute was pretty far off, and not in a good way. My first set of figures was just guessing from the work that I had done, so I decided to actually time both Sharpen and Gigapixel.
I am not sure where you are getting your GPAI figures from
