Low FPS on SSD1322 and Raspberry Pi 3B
maeb0r0wski opened this issue · comments
Hi everyone. I'm new to Python, Raspberry Pi qnd GitHub, so please forgive me if I've made any silly or obvious mistakes. I have a Raspberry Pi 3B and an SSD1322 256x64 display, 4-wire SPI. On perfloop.py, I'm getting around 370 FPS, and in fullframe mode, it's around 10 FPS, which seems very low. Additionally, in scrolling_pixelart.py, I can see that the display updates slowly and in quarters, which looks quite disappointing.
I've noticed that in wiki-tests with SSD1322 on Raspberry Pi 4B, they achieve around 2000 FPS. Is the whole issue simply because I don't have a 4B model?
Linux raspberrypi 5.15.84-v7+ #1613 SMP Thu Jan 5 11:59:48 GMT 2023 armv7l GNU/Linux

Python 3.9.2
Yes, the whole issue is because I didn't have a 4B model.
I added my test of 3B model to wiki: https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.oled/wiki/Usage-&-Benchmarking
