Increasing UDPSRC performance using GstBufferPool

[Paulski73]

All,

 

I need to increase the performance of udpsrc to get better throughput.  Looking at the post below, the suggestion is that this can be accomplished with the use of buffer-pool.

 

http://gstreamer-devel.966125.n4.nabble.com/udpsrc-performance-td4655463.html

 

I am currently using gstreamer-0.10 for Windows and cannot find GstBufferPool in my installation.  Is this something that has been introduced in a more recent version of Gstreamer?  If so, would I have upgrade to the latest version of GStreamer, or is it possible to just add in GstBufferPool?

 

Thanks,

 

            Paul.

Hi,

Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Thanks,

Paul.

Hi,

  With 1.0 we should be able to use GstBufferPool to do this (and it
shouldn't be that hard).
  ... but that won't help much considering the performance bottleneck we
now have in 1.0 with switching to gsocket
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=668842)

Thank you Edward for the response.  This raises a few more questions;

Is anyone actively working on Bug Report 668842 and is there an estimate of when it is likely to be resolved?

I need a quick work around to improve the performance of my udpsrc, how easy would it be to add GstBufferPool into my build of gstreamer-0.10?

Even if I did this, would I still see the GSocket problem?

Would it be easier for me to revert to using recvfrom() as identified in the bug report, or do I still need to use the Buffer Pool?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Paul.

First you need to measure why it too slow for you, then you can start
thinking
about how to fix it.
