VMTN

Hi vRick.

Traditional benchmarks have is of limited use in a remoted desktop since it does not involve or measure one critical components and that is the remoting part. (PCoIP)

Another thing that theses benchmark does is to change/set the resolution multiple times to get a fair benchmark score and this is another thing that is not a great idea with a remoteing protocol since PCoIP and the client need to keep up and change resolution also, this is sometimes casusing PCoIP to fail.

So conventional graphics-benchmarks might not be the best way to test vSGA/vDGA instead I would suggest to perform some real test with 3D applications.

// Linjo

Anybody notice any performance differences with normal 2d stuff?  Not 3d, but the 2d things such as highly graphical web pages, google satellite view, playing video's with VLC?  In testing these things I show it is using the K1 GPU by the spike in the GPU utilization percentage, but the performance is slightly worse then if I run the same things on a host without the K1 card.  Video's are less smooth/more jumpy, heavly imaged webpages tend to be more jumpy, etc.  Same specs on both hosts down to the BIOS settings, only difference is one has a K1 card and the other does not.

Tried today AutoCAD, 3Ds Max, Inventor and Google earth and it ran ok which is mainly what we are going to be using in production .

smhvmware, I've noticed the same thing.  I've had a ticket open with Teradici about this.  Apparently the VMs are rendering all this at around 30fps but for whatever reason the frame rate that PCoIP is able to encode is only around 15fps.  This weekend we'll be installing our apex 2800 cards in our K1 hosts so I'm hoping that will help.  Otherwise I'm supposed to have a webex with Teradici but it hasn't been scheduled yet.

TomMar,

You may not gain anything better than what you are currently getting when installing the Apex 2800 card when playing video.

We are currently talking with Teradici support when using their apex 2800 card.  Right now the scenario we have is two Windows 7 VMs being remoted into by quad display tera2 zero clients.  One of the VM's displays are being offloaded by the apex card and the other one is not.  Both VMs are clones so all settings are the same.  When the offloaded VM plays a video file the PCoIP session's FPS (measured by the zero client's webpage statistics) is limited to ~21 FPS, however when the non-offloaded VM plays the same video file the PCoIP session's FPS is not limited and runs at about 30 FPS (what the actual video player application is able to decode at).  The video application is stricly 2d video and is not utilizing the GPU (vSGA) to decode the video; it is all CPU.  The response so far that we have gotten back from Teradici is that it looks to be a software bug with respect to the apex card and they are working to resolve it and will more than likely be pushed out with firmware 2.3 in the next few months.  They mentioned some test builds may be avaliable in the next week or so, but I havent gotten a confirmation on that yet.

Regards,

Nathan

This tool is also useful for gathering PCoIP Data PCoIP Configuration Utility Release – Version 1.0 | MindFlux Inc.

I have been running APEX 2800 v2 cards and it doesn't seem to matter.  Can I get your Teradici/Vmware ticket numbers so I can reference them?  I am having a hard time proving it to VMware as it is subtle and they are now telling me that the K1 cards are only supported with ESXi 5.1 U1 which ironically causes the APEX 2800 cards to cease to work.

I played around with that PCoIP tool in the above post and got interesting results.  I was playing a 1080p Star Trek movie trailer in VLC.  Both hosts are identicle aside from the K1 card and both have APEX 2800 v2 cards.

-With build-to-lossless enabled total max B/W was 35Mb/s, with K1 card was jumpy and without K1 card was less jumpy (though still slighly jumpy on panning frames)

-With build-to-lossless disabled, with K1 card was now very smooth with a total max B/W of 10Mb/s and without the K1 card became jumpy with a total max B/W of 4Mb/s

With build-to-lossless disabled the GPU was also running about 5% more utilization

smhvmware,

Do you know what the difference is between v1 and v2 of the apex 2800 cards?  Is it as simple as looking at the part number or some identifying information on the card itself?  I'm not sure what version we have (eval cards), but would like to know.

Thanks,

Nathan

v2 is the low profile version.  v1 is full height.

That tool is helpful and I normally use it, however when you have more than one monitor and need a per display FPS reading the zero client's web statistics page is more detailed.

smhvmware; thanks for the info.

For anyone considering getting a GRID K1 card for actual production use I would highly suggest locating a demo first and thoroughly testing it.  Other then actual 3d workloads every single test I have ran usually shows that when running on a host with a K1 card everything will be noticably slower.  Things as simple as scrolling on a web page with pictures on it will be jumpy when offloading to a K1 card while smooth on an indenticle ESXi host without the card.  Playing a small partial window streaming video such as those found on news sites will also use up over 50% of one of the GPU cores, with a K1 card having 4 cores I am unsure how well these cards will scale in the high virtualization ratio typical for VDI deployments.

I too have no output from the gpuvm command (just hangs).  I have the correct ESXi, NVIDIA Quadro 4000, the latest VIB installed.  Everything seems to be there.  However, I've observed two things.  When I reboot the ESXi host, when it gets to the Xorg service, the ping will become intermittent, I can't effectively communicate with the host, and even the console doesn't work right.  It will stay that way for 18-minutes, and then everything will stabilize and run.  But the hardware GPU isn't available.  The VM (when set to hardware) gets stuck at 95%.  The VM log file shows it gets to the part where it should have read MKS had started with NVIDIA, but it's just blank.  I'm thinking it has something to do with Xorg, but I can't make sense of the log.  Any ideas?

Can you post /var/log/vmkernel.log?

// Linjo

It's pretty big, so I put it here:  http://hilltopit.com/vmkernel.log

Here's the way I see it.  There are two things holding vSGA back:

1) Lack of DirectX 10/11 (I think that last game to use DirectX 9.0c was like Star Wars: Empire at War) and OpenGL 3+  -> We also need HDCP support but that's a different gripe.

2) limited to only 256Mb of GPU RAM and 256Mb of vRAM (the GeForce 5900 Ultra had 256Mb of physical RAM).

I think we're closer to breaking through #2.

I created a 5.2 pool and set the 3D settings to use vSphere's settings. Here's the gpuvm output looking at vShpere:

Xserver unix:0, GPU maximum memory 2076672KB

        pid 10779, VM "MediaPC3", reserved 262144KB of GPU memory.

        GPU memory left 1814528KB.

I edited the [svga.vramSize = "536870912"] line in the VMX file and changed the 5 to a 9.  I booted the VM back up and here's the output from gpuvm:

Xserver unix:0, GPU maximum memory 2076672KB

        pid 12296, VM "MediaPC3", reserved 457457KB of GPU memory.

        GPU memory left 1619215KB.

Looks like the VM has taken a pretty healthy chunk out of the physical GPU RAM with the forced setting.  Does this fix vSGA performce?  Not necessarily, plus it's a bit of a hack that I'd frown on if put into a production environment but sometimes people just need it to work.  It also looks like the Half GPU RAM/Half vRAM still applies, thus we're only pulling 450Mb for 900MB total.  Need to look into it more to see if the Viewserver overrides that setting when the pool mandates the RAM size.

How we lookin on number 1?
