So I decided to run some tests between Windows 10 Pro 20H2/ MacOS Catalina / Manjaro 5.9.8-AMD - Using opengl workaround AMD 20.40
- AMD 3900X, 32GB 3200Mhz, Couple identical NVMe's, AMD 5700XT
- Davinci Resolve 16.7 - FREE
- All OS's are fully update to date as at 2020-11-18. Windows 10 Pro and Mac are both clean installs with latest drivers.
- 2 x "identical" projects were tested. a) Source H264/AAC b) Source in dnxhr_hq.
- 3 x Outputs of 1 x WAV, 1 x Cineform YUV 10bit, 1 x Cineform RGB 16 bit
- Filesystems used: Windows - NTFS, MacOS APFS, Linux - XFS (OS) + F2FS (Scratch)
- Windows and Mac both used physically different Source and Destination drives. Linux same to same partition.
- I did notice Linux CPU throttling near the end of the 3rd test. CPU hit 82 - Stock cooler. Mac and Windows no throttling.
- Final renders I haven't done yet but I will as I use FFMPEG and who knows maybe there's some differences.
- Some of the source files are around 12GiB in size - with DnxHR
Project is a short mix of fusion, chromakey, colouring and transitions.
Here are the encode times
Windows 10 Pro - H264 Source - 00:36, 02:57, 05:43
Windows 10 Pro - DnxHR Source - 00:33, 02:48, 05:33
RAM Peak 14GiB
VRAM Peak 5.8GiB
MacOS - H264 Source - 00:28, 01:45, 01:49
MacOS - DnxHR Source - 00:27, 01:48, 01:58
RAM Peak 12GiB
Linux - DnxHR Source - 00:32, 01:29, 01:58
RAM Peak 8GiB
Final output file is around 24GiB.
I was pleasantly surprised with the Linux result as last I tested it sucked with fusion. I can't wait to test with 17. When I figure out how to add VRAM for the others I will update this post.
