TC Raytrace Benchmark - Multi-Core & Single-Core 3D CPU Raytracer

TC Raytrace Benchmark is a native Linux 3D CPU raytracing benchmark and multi-core scaling analyzer built by TC Studio.

Key Features:

  • Genuine Tile-Based 3D CPU Raytracer: Renders reflective chrome, metallic, and diffuse spheres over a 3D checkerboard ground plane with directional shadows, Blinn-Phong specular highlights, recursive reflections, and sky gradient shading.
  • Progressive Live Tile Viewport: Renders spiral-ordered tiles onto a live canvas with active worker tile brackets, ray throughput telemetry (KRays/s), and PNG frame export.
  • Single-Core & Multi-Core Modes: Evaluates Single-Core (1 worker process) and Multi-Core (multiprocessing across all logical CPU threads) rendering performance, computing real pts scores, render duration, and MP Ratio speedup.
  • Core Scaling & Hardware Telemetry: Runs multi-thread scaling sweeps and monitors real-time per-thread CPU utilization, clock frequencies, thermal zones, and cache topology from Linux /proc and /sys interfaces, with CSV, JSON, and TXT export.

An independent Linux alternative inspired by Cinebench for evaluating single-core and multi-core 3D CPU rendering performance on Linux workstations and laptops.
