  • The AI Image Generation Benchmark definition file (for running the benchmark using the command-line) has been separated into multiple files - one for each inference engine.
  • The AI Image Generation Benchmark definition files now use device_id instead of device_type, allowing for a more precise selection of available inference accelerators. Please check the definition files for more information on the default values for device selection as well as how to query devices and change them.  
      

Fixed

  • Fixed an issue where the device name was missing from AI Image Generation Benchmark results when run from the command-line and using the ONNX runtime AI inference engine.  

UL Procyon Video Editing Benchmark GPU acceleration Toggle. 

Since Adobe® Premiere® Pro version 24.2.1, some video filters default to using GPU acceleration. As these filters are used in the benchmark, this behavior would break compatibility with previous UL Procyon video editing benchmark results. This would shift how the benchmark scales with system hardware from a balance of CPU and GPU performance, to scaling primarily with GPU performance on systems that support this feature.  

To prevent this issue, the Video Editing Benchmark defaults to not using GPU acceleration for these filters. This toggle provides you with the option to enable GPU acceleration for these filters, letting you choose between these two implementations based on your benchmarking requirements.

Note that even with this change, scores are not comparable against scores obtained using older versions of Adobe® Premiere® Pro. You should always take into account that updates to the underlying applications may affect score comparability.
