Vray NEXT 4.2 memory / embree issue

[alex.nozadze]

Hi ,
just was try update 2 and get this :


in 4.1 everything is ok ...
in 4.2 I reset Vray and put same settings as before

[alex.nozadze]

4.1 screen / render is ok

maybe you had "conserve memory" on?
Does it make a difference in the latest version of NEXT?

Conserve memory is off

does it make a difference, though, turning it on with the newer V-Ray?

yep, with conserve memory on - works ...

Super! In our tests, conserve memory not only reduced RAM use, but also made rendering marginally, but consistently, faster!

If possible send the scene to our support - maybe there's some issue in the update that causes higher memory usage.

Well, make it default then...

It wasn't actually faster in all cases. For many scenes there was some slowdown instead. It wasn't too big, but I'd like to evaluate it more carefully before flipping the default.

Best regards,

Task list growing and growing, eheh. XD

scene sent via wetransfer to support@chaosgroup.com , actually this scene did not work with in both cases ,,
trom 3rd of May I made a lot adjustments in overall, and the recent is working in both case , but one I've sent no ... maybe this will help to figure out, is it 4.2 issue or mine
thank you for support !

Thank you Alex,
I'm testing the provided scene right now and the same behavior occurs on my machine here. While the 4.10.03 can handle it well, the latest Stable 4.2 and nightly build fails at the building raycast acc. Will continue troubleshooting it with our developers...
