Please list any experience/knowledge you've had with Speex on the following hardware, including model, minimum speed required for real-time or other observations. When providing benchmarks, please specify:

  • CPU speed
  • Speex version
  • Sampling rate (narrowband vs wideband)
  • Bit-rate
  • Complexity setting
  • Any other option that isn't the default
  • Compiler (and version)

See also supported CPU and optimization flags here - http://www.speex.org/docs/manual/speex-manual/node5.html


x86

  • SSE optimisations (intrinsics)

Power

  • No Altivec support yet

ARM

  • Port with gcc inline assembly.

Performance results for Cirrus Logic EDB9315A @ 200MHz

Tests were run with following configuration:

  • Speex svn rev: 13928
  • Fixed point (though this CPU have hardware floating-point, we were interested in fixed point operation at that moment).
  • Narrow-Band
  • Complexity set either to defailt (2) or to 1, I do not recall exactly now :( But I think results will not differ considerably.
  • DTX: no
  • Preprocessing: no, just bare encoding/decoding
  • OS: Linux, shipped with development board
  • Compiler: gcc
  • CPU info:

Speex NB performance on Cirrus EDB9315A @ 200MHz
mode=2 mode=3 mode=4 mode=5 mode=6 mode=7 mode=8
encoding 1 frame (20ms of auido) 3.7ms 3.3ms 4.5ms 3.7ms 5.8ms 4.7ms 3.2ms
decoding 1 frame (20ms of auido) 0.45ms 0.5ms 0.5ms 0.5ms 0.5ms 0.55ms 0.45ms

Please, note, that these values may be inaccurate and may be different in your system. E.g. different version of gcc produce different results. These values should rather give you rough idea on how Speex performance looks like.

I can get good quality voice call on my PDA (PocketPC 2003, Intel PXA270 312 MHz).
So my settings now (I use embeded Visual C++ 4 latest SP):
 - plain C (not ARM assembly), fixed point version of speex (r12832)
 - quality/complexity set to 5 (previously it was 0-1). 3-4 is also okay, but obviously quality is not as good.
 - compiler set to optimize for maximum speed (/Oxt flag, previously it was default, which is mapped to /O2).

I tried with narrowband only, and audio is good. I also tried with
adding compiler flags which I thought would be appropriate for my
processor ("/QRarch5T /QRdsp /QRxscale" options), but lacking a good
CPU monitor I don't how much improvement I got. My task manager showed
that the CPU usage for my app is 3%, obviously this is wrong.
