Note: doesn’t really matter the exact photo (what’s in the photo itself) - as far as i test it. Camera body (RAW type) and Megapixel count matter. See some results table about that (end of) this thread: Budget GPU for PL
Fuji RAW handled is the fastest in PL! See: Budget GPU for PL
I also did the same test with my SSD. That thing is extremely fast, about 14 GB/s read, and a little bit less write. It now took 3½ minutes, so about 2.2 seconds per image. Increasing the number of images processed at the same time to 4 reduced the time to 3 minutes, or 1.9 seconds per image.
Wowww, its pretty fast!
You use for Noise reduction DP3 or DP3 XD? I guess DP3.
I made some test to compare.
My PC: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 (3.6 GHz, 6 core), Ram: 32GB, old (slow) SSD (not nVME) drives. GPU: Intel Arc B570 10GB GPU. PCIe 3. Win 11.
95 photo , Fuji X-T5 (raw’s from dpreview)
NR: DP3, basic adjustment (contrast, exposure, geometry, lens sharpness, etc). Parallel export: 4. From multiple export run, average: 05:10 → 3.26 sec / photo.
1.9 sec vs 3.26 sec → 0.58 (1.71).
I not do very deep performance comparison with you system, GPU approx 40-45% or less vs RX9070, CPU is similar like 40% or less.
I not do very detailed price comparison, in here (Hungary) Intel B570 vs RX9070 is approx 2.3+, CPU around 3.5x.
If you use DP3 (and not DP3 XD), then: Based on that measurements, if you use DP3 (and not DP3 XD) the Choosing a GPU for DxO Photolab: the answer? - #135 by noir.fonce the chart definitely not true, but hard to say where → for the Intel ARC B570 or the RX9070 or both. That chart used XD2xs, etc, so may not easy to interpolae to current PL version
I did another test with the same 95 images. Denoising & demosaicing, Lens sharpness, and Distortion were activated. Export in 16 bit Tiff.
These are the results:
Standard 3’45” - 2 images export = 2.37 seconds / image
Standard 3’12” - 4 images export = 2.02 seconds / image
DeepPRIME 3 - 2’47” - 2 images export = 1.76 seconds / image
DeepPRIME 3 - 1’53” - 4 images export = 1.19 seconds / image
DeepPRIME XD3 - 3’15” - 2 images export = 2.05 seconds / image
DeepPRIME XD3 - 2’45” - 4 images export = 1.74 seconds / image
I did another test with 6 images export (= the maximum) and DeepPRIME 3. It took 1’44”, that is 1.09 seconds / image.
How much difference was there between what you were seeing on your stopwatch and what was reported in the PL task manager (not sure exactly what it’s called, but clicking the right-pointing arrow in a circle gets you there)?
Thanks!
