When to use SPU Optimization

[HelloDavid]

Hello,

When switching over to SPU Optimized Bullet we saw a decrease in performance, with most of the time spent in calls to addToTask() and flush2() in the SPU gathering collision dispatcher.
Our scenes typically have 1000 static objects and only around 100 dynamic objects at a time. Is the descrease in performance expected? Is there a certain threshold under which the SPU code ends up spending longer in setup than improving performance?

This is on PS3

Thanks!

That is interesting. What kind of collision shapes are you using?

Do you mind filing an issue on PS3 Devnet so we can look into it further?
Thanks,
Erwin
