People on the Beyond3D GPGPU forum have optimized my DirectCompute Buddhabrot implementation. Good discussions that I can learn a lot from. Running pcchen’s optimized version on my HD5750 (you can dl it from the forum), I saw a 6x speed up from my original code. GPGPU Flam4′s author Keldor also gave me optimization advice as a comment on my blog post (http://www.yakiimo3d.com/2010/03/29/dx11-directcompute-buddhabrot-nebulabrot/). I was planning on writing an optimized version of my Buddhabrot implementation and had been looking up DirectCompute RNG implementations, but I got real busy at work, and now that time has passed, I want to do something else. My next demo is probably not going to be an optimized DirectCompute Buddhabrot implementation.

Have wanted to move Yakiimo3D source code and binaries to an open-source hosting community for a while now. After initially leaning towards creating a Google Code project, I ended up choosing CodePlex. Since Yakiimo3D is going to be mostly DirectX 11 programming samples, a Microsoft-run CodePlex open-source hosting with a MS-user community makes the most sense, so I think it was a good decision. For source code control on CodePlex, I went with Mercurial. Have never used Mercurial or Git, so it should be a good learning experience for me.
