Metashape 1.6.1: Running Simultaneous Instances

Posted on April 29, 2020 by William George

In our past testing of Metashape, we have found that it only effectively uses around 8-16 cores. More than that doesn’t help, and so the focus for best performance is on high clock speeds within that range. What if you were running multiple photogrammetry jobs at the same time, though? Would that end up better utilizing a high core count processor?

AMD Threadripper 3990X: Does Windows 10 for Workstations speed up photogrammetry?

Posted on February 19, 2020 by William George

When AMD launched the 64-core Threadripper 3990X, some reviewers reported that performance of this 128-thread beast was hindered by running a normal version of Windows 10 Pro – and that instead using Windows 10 Pro for Workstations or Windows 10 Enterprise gave better results. We have investigated that claim using our in-house Pix4D and RealityCapture benchmarks to see if the choice of operating system could impact our customers.

AMD Threadripper 3990X: Does Windows 10 for Workstations improve rendering performance?

We have investigated that claim using Cinebench and V-Ray benchmarks to see if the choice of operating system could impact our customers.

Adobe After Effects CC 2015.3 Multi Core Performance

Posted on September 6, 2016 by Matt Bach

High-end systems for After Effects are sometimes sold with two high core count CPUs for maximum CPU performance. However, our testing has shown that After Effects actually has some significant performance problems with multiple CPUs which makes those configurations in reality much slower than a system with a single CPU.

Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015 Multi Core Performance (Update1)

Posted on June 8, 2016 by Matt Bach

Premiere Pro is often touted as greatly benefiting from high core count CPUs. In this article we will be benchmarking the multi-threading capabilities of Premiere Pro CC 2015 to determine exactly how well it actually is able to utilize high core count CPUs.

Adobe After Effects CC 2014 Multi Core Performance

Posted on October 6, 2015 by Matt Bach

After Effects 2015 has some significant performance problems with multiple CPUs due to the removal of the “Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously” feature. In this article we want to test AE 2014 to see how well AE was able to utilize systems with both higher core count and multiple physical CPUs before this feature was removed.

Adobe Premiere Pro CC Multi Core Performance

Posted on August 27, 2015 by Matt Bach

Premiere Pro is often touted as greatly benefiting from high core count CPUs. In this article we will be benchmarking the multi-threading capabilities of Premiere Pro CC to determine if it actually is at using high core count CPUs.

Adobe Lightroom CC/6 Multi Core Performance

Posted on May 12, 2015 by Matt Bach

With hundreds of CPU models available, it can be a daunting task to determine which CPU will give you the best performance in Lightroom. In this article we will be examining the multi-threading capabilities of Lightroom CC and Lightroom 6 to determine whether a CPU with a high frequency or a CPU with a high core count will give you the best possible performance.

Adobe Photoshop CC Multi Core Performance

With hundreds of CPU models available, it can be a daunting task to determine which CPU will give you the best performance in Photoshop. In this article we will be examining the multi-threading capabilities of Photoshop CC to determine whether a CPU with a high frequency or a CPU with a high core count will give you the best possible performance.
