Estimating fillrate
Here are some results of simple tests on filling DMA buffer with data. Filling DMA buffer requres lot's of memory operations on a bit level rather than doing simple byte/word wide store and copy. And it looks like it's quite a task both for esp32 core and compiler. I've done this while optimizing loops and bit logic along with testing compiler results.
So the testbed is:
- Matrix modules: 4 x FM6126A based 64x64 modules chained in 256x64
A testpatters sketch:
- allocating single DMA buffs for 256x64
- allocating (NUM_LEDS*3) bytes for CRGB buffer
- measuring microseconds for the following calls:
- clearScreen() - full blanking
- fillScreenRGB888() with monochrome/gray colors
- fill screen using drawPixel()
- filling some gradient into CRGB buff
- painting CRGB buff into DMA buff with looped drawPixelRGB888()
- drawing lines
