Ray-tracing is a rendering technique that calculates an
image of a scene by simulating the way rays of light travel in the real world.
In the real world, rays of light are emitted from a light source and illuminate
objects. The light reflects off of the objects or passes through transparent
objects. This reflected light hits our eyes or perhaps a camera lens. Because
the vast majority of rays never hit an observer, it would take forever to trace
a scene. Ray-tracing programs like POV-Ray start with their simulated camera and
trace rays backwards out into the scene. The user specifies the location of the
camera, light sources, and objects as well as the surface texture properties of
objects, their interiors (if transparent) and any atmospheric media such as fog,
haze, or fire.
Lower render times are better, however higher Pixel Per
Second rendering values are best. Pov-ray is multi-threaded.

Here's another multi-threaded test, and again the AMD
Phenom II X6 1090T's six cores give it a big lead over the Intel Core i7 920
processor, even when the latter has HyperThreading enabled. 3D ray-tracing is a
definite forte for this processor.
The SPECgpc project group develops and distributes
SPECviewperf, which measures the 3D rendering performance of systems running
under OpenGL. SPECviewperf measures the 3D rendering performance of systems
running under OpenGL. The SPECopcSM project group has worked with independent
software vendors (ISVs) to obtain tests, data sets and weights that constitute
what is called a viewset. Each viewset represents the graphics rendering portion
of an actual application. The ISVs that develop SPECopc viewsets have provided
percentage weights for each test for which a performance number is reported.
ISVs have defined these percentages to indicate the relative importance of a
test within the overall application.
Higher results are better.
