A Windows Vulkan 2D sprite rendering benchmark written in Rust.
Inspired by Jacob's gophermark (YouTube) and ebitengine-bunny-mark (Artem Sedykh). With sprite batching inspired by How I learned Vulkan and wrote a small game engine with it (Elias Daler).
Install on Windows 11 with winget:
winget install vulkansdk
To run with 1000 sprites:
cargo run --release 1000
With Git Bash on Windows:
./benchmark.shThis will:
- Build the app in release mode
- Test various sprite counts (1000, 2000, 3000, etc.)
- Summarize the results
Ryzen 9700X and Radeon 9070 XT running Radeon driver version 25.6.1.
