Yes, Ilia suggested this on IRC yesterday. My impression is that not many applications/games need high performance fp64 (it's likely mostly compute stuff, which is not our target). I could be wrong though. If anyone knows differently, please tell us :) > > I'm not sure though how much work it would be to add this to the soft > fp64 as it has now landed for NIR, though. Yes, with virgl not using NIR, I am not sure how much work soft fp64 will require.
