Meteor Shower is a suite of micro benchmarks that measure CPU and GPU performance. It is for games and apps developers to understand the performance of their device with different types of workload and learn how to optimize their game so that it can run smoothly. The Benchmark Modes allow you to measure the performance of the CPU and GPU of your mobile device: • CPU Parallel Workload – Multiple character animations with multi-threaded skinning. Rendering to a small offscreen framebuffer, to limit the GPU fragment workload. • GPU Driver Draw Call Workload – 6000 draw calls with simple geometry. Rendering to a small offscreen framebuffer, to limit the GPU fragment workload. • GPU Vertex Workload (Visible) – 1M triangles in view. Rendering to a small offscreen framebuffer, to limit the GPU fragment workload. • GPU Vertex Workload (Culling) – 1M triangles, mostly culled. Rendering to a small offscreen framebuffer, to limit the GPU fragment workload. • GPU Fragment Workload – Multiple layers of clouds using a complex fragment shader. Rendering to a configurable offscreen framebuffer without v-sync. TECHNICAL FEATURES • Metal API • Multi-threaded for multi-core devices • Forward Rendering • C++14 compiled for ARMv8-A • Rendering at native resolution with MSAA • Offscreen Rendering at a configurable resolution • ASTC textures BENCHMARK YOUR DEVICE Meteor Shower enables performance measurement of mobile devices using CPU and GPU targeted performance metrics. This version has been built with the Universe engine using Metal and multithreading. Once finished the benchmarks display information about your device and provide performance measurements. MEASURE YOUR PERFORMANCE At the end of each benchmark, you will be presented with a full report of your device and its performance. The report contains: • Average FPS (Frames Per Second) • Resolution • Chipset • CPU • GPU GET IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS Meteor Shower is able to provide in-depth technical performance metrics to give you the data you need to understand how your phone and tablet devices stand up over the course of the benchmark. See detailed charts, lists, rankings and unlock the knowledge you need on our website Asteroidsbenchmarks.com • Frame Rate • Pixel Rate • CPU Rate • Timeline Charts • CPU & GPU Frame Times COMPARE YOUR DEVICE All devices are displayed in the order of performance on our website at asteroidsbenchmarks.com. You’ll be able to compare your device with the other devices ranked. See peak performance and spot performance drops during the timeline of the benchmark for any device. Understand which devices are at the top of their game! SCORES, DETAILED CHARTS, LISTS, RANKINGS AND MORE All available via the Asteroids Benchmarks website: asteroidsbenchmarks.com
