[Spice-devel] RFC: Spice in a 3D word presentation sheets

[Yonit Halperin]

Hi,

Thanks for the presentation.
I agree with Marc-André that I wouldn't be so decisive with "Host-side 
rendering is the only feasible solution". I am not convinced yet that 
video encoding can be better than using smart compression and caching of 
3D objects and client side rendering, at least for desktop/office apps. 
But I didn't see any statistics that support either of the approaches.

Best,
Yonit.

I mean, otherwise WebGL wouldn't really work either, unless all the content is generated by CPU. And spice 3d support is not meant to be a full 3d solution, to be in your next-gen gaming box. Back your argument with actual numbers to convince me ;) I think Dave gave better reasons on the ML threads.
