Performance Programming for Gamedev Students

[Anonymous]

Just realised I never posted this up here – the slides for a talk I did the other day for the IET Masters class in Trinity, thought people might be interested.

Excellent slides.

Nice clear cache example. Glad to see Data orientated design being passed on. Also yet another reminder that assembly is very useful (still a private shame, even if indie tools like Unity/C# don’t quite apply in the same way). Great links for the reading list :)

Data oriented is a good tool to have, but like OOP it isn’t a religion.

I never understand why programmers should don’t learn how the hardware works anymore. If programmer is scared of assembly they should mess around with smaller CPU like a micro controller devkit or even an emulator and write some machine code on those.
