with displacement " updating instances" hangs

[thomes]

hi,

if i enable displacement the calculation hangs a very long time at "updating instances". it shows "done" but the green processing bar always runs from left to right. it needs quite a long time to begin with the rendering.never seen this before.

Hi,

What is the setup of the displacement node?
What type of displacement is this 2d or 3d ?
Maybe the Edge length parameter is set to low ?

Thanks.
Can you post or send the file to support@chaosgroup.com so we can check if anything is wrong with the setup or there is a bug?

I just waiting 1/2 hour watching the updating instance message. It is a displacement thing, at least for me, because if I globally turn it off there is no wait.
