2021-01-18modules/drizzle: low-hanging fruit optimizationsVito Caputo
- switch puddle_sample() to 0..1 coordinates to avoid some pointless extra arithmetic on every pixel - avoid redundant ->w multiplies in puddle_sample() - avoid multiplies in inner loops of drizzle_render_fragment() by accumulating coordinates w/addition instead I noticed full-screen 'compose' was struggling to keep a full frame rate on my laptop when testing with the new 'plato' layer. valgrind profiles showed drizzle as the big hog, mostly the puddle_sample() function. These changes help but it's still not great, getting much better will likely become invasive and crufty. It would be nice to cache the vertical lerp results and reuse them across puddle_sample() calls when valid, that might be a useful TODO. The runner-up is spiro, prolly some low-hanging fruit there as well, I haven't looked yet.

These were commonish in the 90s demo days, done as a library to encourage use by different modules. You can simply render this directly onto a frame buffer like the old days, or sample it as a height map or density field for more complex compositions.
