Free threaded resource creation may also be a natural fit for async copy queue uploads, which would enable completely free threaded data uploads to vidmem for newly allocated resources. For more information, see Best Practices: Using NVIDIA RTX Ray Tracing. Rebuilds should be relatively fixed overhead.

Don’t overlap workloads that use the same resource for reading and writing, as it causes data hazards. Ray tracing Math-limited compute If RT is RTCore dominated, the time spent traversing triangles in the BVH can be overlapped with something like denoising for the previous ray tracing pass or some other math-limited post-processing pass.

The main goal of my GSoC project is to completely rewrite the light mapper in Godot and, instead of a voxel approach, use ray tracing to compute the scene lighting. I'm currently working on integrating Embree as a ray tracing library into the Godot editor. Current progress. That will be added in the following weeks.

For example, a shader can use warp shuffle instructions to exchange data between threads in a warp without going through shared memory, which is especially valuable in pixel shaders where there is no shared memory.
