Performance Optimization on Apple Devices - Apple Silicon creates a unified gaming platform across Mac, iPad, and iPhone, presenting challenges in delivering console-quality experiences on mobile devices [1] - The industry employs a systematic loop for performance optimization: observe, isolate, diagnose, and tune [5][6] - Metal Performance HUD is used as a live dashboard for spotting issues in real-time during development and QA [7][8] - Xcode Instruments, with the Game Performance Overview template, supports long captures to identify issues appearing over time [12][13] - Metal System Trace provides a detailed, low-level view of GPU hardware scheduling [15] - Metal Debugger, with frame capture, helps scrutinize single frames to identify the root cause of performance issues [17][18] Power Efficiency and Scaling - Sustained Execution Mode gives a steady performance state and a good target for optimizations; thermal metric in Metal Performance HUD helps catch issues early [27][28] - The industry monitors and controls power usage by marking games in info.plist to enable Game Mode [27] - Developers can use rendering resolution, asset/feature quality, and device capabilities to tune games for different devices [32][33][34][35] - MetalFX can bridge the performance gap by using spatial or temporal upscaling [4]

RT Rahul | Aerius Labs (@rahulghangas)LFG! S-Two is now accelerated and is performant on Apple Metal.Metal benchmarks are already beating highly optimized simd implementation for trace sizes as low as `log_n=17`, while still remaining competitive with smaller trace sizes.Major metal kernels implemented:– M31/QM31 field ops– Circle FFT / IFFT– FRI fold + decompose– Merkle (BLAKE2s) hashing– Quotient accumulation– Fiat–Shamir channel mix/draw– Constraint VM row eval– MLE folds + circle eval ...
