Section titled “Control over new Depth Stencil texture cache stats”Optimized GPU Memory Management for Depth Stencil Textures
Section titled “Optimized GPU Memory Management for Depth Stencil Textures”By restructuring how Depth Stencil (DS) textures are managed, Gameface now enables efficient sharing of DS textures between render targets. Previously, one Depth Stencil texture was allocated per render target even though that isn't always necessary. Now, as long as texture sizes and sample counts align, multiple render targets can share a single DS texture, significantly reducing memory usage. While the exact savings depend on the specific UI, on average, it achieves at least a 2x reduction in DS-related memory consumption. As a result, Gameface now allows control over the amount of Depth Stencil textures and their total size in bytes. Currently, the default DS textures byte capacity is 8MB, while their count can go up to 32. However, you can configure these to suit your needs using the new enumeration entry cohtml::InternalCaches::ICACHE_DepthStencilTextures with the View::QueueSetCacheCountSize and View::QueueSetCacheBytesSize APIs. The View::QueueClearCaches method can be used to clear the whole DS textures cache. Additionally, the View::GetCacheCountStats and View::GetCacheBytesStats functions can be used to retrieve the DS textures' capacity statistics. Renoir automatically maintains these limits by pruning excess textures at the end of each frame, ensuring that DS textures stay within the defined capacity and memory constraints.
