SVT-AV1 2.3 Brings More Performance Improvements: AVX-512 & LTO By Default, More Tuning
SVT-AV1 2.3 is now available as the newest feature release to this leading open-source AV1 encoder
SVT-AV1 2.3 was released yesterday and while it's already the fastest AV1 encoder around, the new version brings yet more improvements for squeezing out additional performance for CPU-based AV1 coding. - Address speed regressions for high resolutions first pass encode by tuning the threading parameters, with 1080p showing the biggest gains - Enabled AVX512 by default in cmake allowing for ~2-4% speedup - Enabled LTO by default if using a new enough compiler The benchmarks shown in this release announcement highlight the very significant performance uplift over the prior release: I'll be working on some new SVT-AV1 benchmarks shortly for different CPUs.About The AuthorMichael Larabel is the principal author of Phoronix.com and founded the site in 2004 with a focus on enriching the Linux hardware experience.
