Capture One Pro 10 Mac User Simple Benchmark request...
Hey users, I have an easy request. I'm really interested to see how the performance of the 2014, 2015 and 2017 5K iMacs compare to the 2013 Mac Pros (quad, 6 core and 8 core) machines, but any an all Mac systems are welcome - the more the merrier. ...Will also be interested to see how the iMac Pros with the 8 cores and Vega CPUs compare.
**As a side note, I'm running making this same request on the Window's side.**
Anyway...Could you please run a simple Capture One Pro 10 benchmark? No, it's not perfectly scientific, that's already been establish, and it's entirely OK.
Please export 12 RAW files to 100% quality JPGs. once for CPU only export, and once again for GPU acceleration enabled.
Please list: Capture One Pro version, camera make/model, CPU and GPU used + the GPU Active time and GPU inactive time.
As an example, here's my machine.
Exporting 12 RAW files to 100% quality JPGs:
C1P10, Sony a7rII, Mac 2.66GHz QuadCore Xeon W3520, Sapphire Radeon HD 7950
GPU acceleration = 1 minute 24 seconds
CPU only = 2 minutes 50 seconds
C1P10, Nikon D750, Mac 2.66GHz QuadCore Xeon W3520, Sapphire Radeon HD 7950
GPU acceleration = 44 seconds
CPU only = 1 minutes 43 seconds
C1P10, Fuji X-T2, Mac 2.66GHz QuadCore Xeon W3520, Sapphire Radeon HD 7950
GPU acceleration = 1 minute 38 seconds
CPU only = 1 minutes 53 seconds
Seriously - it's stupid easy to do this... Thanks, and I can't wait to see some numbers.
Thank you. 😄

I'd also like to chime in that, in order to keep this relatively scientific, don't apply any LCCs or spot/dust corrections as they will artificially increase processing times beyond the base you're looking for.
Also worth noting is the OS version and, if necessary, third party GPU drivers.0 -

Thanks for the reminder - though this was already in the original post.

Shouldn't they be the same set of images? 0 -

If you want to be scientific about it, sure. But considering I never work on the same 12 images, and I work with a variety of cameras, variety is good in this case. I'm just going for a general idea.0 -
Please also take a look in the sister-thread in the Windows forum. There are a lot of good input, that translates directly to mac as well.

Bumping this hoping someone with a 2017 iMac will chime in - preferably with a D810 or D750.
BTW, there's a sister thread happening with the same testing on the Windows side...

I have a 2017 iMac 27" 5K with 8GB RAM, 3.8Ghz i5 CPU and Radeon 580 GPU running Mac OS 10.12.6
I use a Nikon D750 and exported the same 12 files both times at around 28-33 MB per file. Exported as 100% jpeg to an internal SSD.
Not sure I ran the test as requested i.e. not sure if I turned off GPU on exports. All I did was go to Preferences and choose never use Open CL for processing and restarted the computer between tests.
With Open CL for processing set in preferences 15 secs, without Open Cl used for processing 16 secs. Just using my watch for timing. So I saw no difference.
If I did not do this correctly please tell me how to turn off the GPU.0 -

To turn off the GPU, open Capture One, then click on CaptureOne on the top menubar, then Preferences.
When the preferences window opens, click on the General tab (that tab is probably already active).
About halfway down there is a section "Hardware Acceleration (Use OpenCL for)" (OpenCL is the interface that an COP uses to acccess the GPU)
Set the fields "Display" and "Processing" to "never" to turn off the use of the GPU.
Close the Preferences window.0 -
