frame render time or benchmark

[s_gru]

is there a vantage benchmark?

You can see offline frame render times in the debug log.

thanks. i guess what i'm wondering is, what is everyone getting for render times per frame. i have two rtx 4080 and seem to be doing OK with HIGH preset @ 1080p, no LC, denoise on final pass, 500 samples. ~25 sec/frame for an interior space with 100 or so lights plus 1 story of windows on the first floor etc... i know it's a wide open question but seems like my only way to improve is new cards and probably have to go to a new mobo and stuff to really squeeze it.

Side note: we've added support for light cache with multiple GPUs in 2.6.0. There are some unfortunate bugs in 2.6.0 so you could try 2.6.1 when we release it in a few days.

For scenes with such number of lights you could try the "reservoir resampling" option, if you haven't yet done so. It should reduce lighting noise even though it slows down the rendering a bit. But this together with the light cache should allow you to render with fewer sampling passes overall.

thanks for the heads up! ok will try the LC when we get the 2.6.1.
