... One of these factors is how the client application uses VDPAU; i.e. the number of surfaces allocated for buffering, order of operations, etc. ... At a bare minimum, the application must allocate one video surface for each reference frame that the stream can use (2 for MPEG or VC-1, a variable stream-dependent number for H.264) plus one surface for the picture currently being decoded. However, if this minimum number of surfaces is used, performance may be poor. ... Performance Levels . ...

... The performance of arfgen depends mainly on the number of points in the detector map that are enclosed within the said regions. ... At the other extreme, a detector map that is too finely binned would result in a large number of CAL calls and would affect the execution time of the task. ... The current version of this task does not have any feature that varies at scales smaller than 1 arcmin, so the user is recommended to use detector maps with bin sizes around this value. ...
