VRay Proxy objects and AMD processor problems

[vlado]

I am not sure why it is happening, but like with bitmaps, copying them locally is the only 100% reliable way to solve these issues.

Hello,

Yesterday I sent 29 jobs on our 30 machines, only one doesn't take the proxies... A core 2 duo...

I don't understand...


Is there an easy way to put proxies locally ??? on 30 machines ???

Best regards

Hello Vlado,

Is it possible to add a function to vrayproxy... If a machine doesn't load a proxy is it possible to return an error to the backburner manager ???

I think it's the only way to solve this problem...

Best regards.

The only thing I have come up with is that the proxies use dynamic memory. The renders get close to running out of ram. So, maybe the threads for AMD procs are not following the dynamic memory value and causing it to run out of memory and not load parts of the proxy?

There are three types of machines on our farm: dual - dual core AMD, dual - dual core Intel, and dual hyperthreaded Intel. All have 4 threads.
