AMD 9900X3D Performance, Metro 5.8.4

Hi @Yan the update did not improved much Intel CPU it was specifically for AMD and many swear it is game changer

I only use intel CPU on all my machines but I was able to use laser mode on my old i7 8th Gen CPU Windows tablet after Windows update yesterday , it never worked before , of course the laser frames are slow and choppy but it still works .. and before it always crashed the moment I switched to the laser mode .

Something improved for sure… However on my laptop my i9 14th Gen CPU was considered as " POOR" after testing performance yet the frame rate is exactly as with GPU acceleration. So I consider it a false diagnostic.

The laser fusing is still 7-8% and for obvious reason ,and if you want it to be faster it will consume all your available RAM. Hopefully it going to be resolved soon.

The rest of the modes 78-85% but the RAM usage is also high and too often reach the maximum with a lot of frames or when scanning a color.

If anyone comes across the KB# of this update please post it here. :slight_smile:

I did a small investigation, and maybe this will help other people.

I tested the fusion of point clouds coming from different scanning methods:

  • Laser mode,

  • Features mode with masks,

  • Features mode without markers.

For about 80% of the computation time, all CPU cores are used.
But during the remaining 20%, the software only uses 1 to 4 cores to finish the fusion.

I also noticed another behavior:
when I scan in Laser mode and run the high‑quality fusion, in this specific case the CPU usage does not exceed 12%, and the software does not use more than 4 cores.

Same issue on the Intel 13600KF. The updates improved performance on AMD, but they do not fix the multitasking problem in Revo Metro.
