Hi,
I was trying to render a phoenix2.2 ocean and wakes with 3 small boats animation, it rendered fine with 3.30.05 about 3mins/frame. With 3.4 i noticed it was taking much longer to render eta 24hrs for 100 frames. Went back to 3.3 and it`s alright again, zips through the gi pass whereas 3.4 is slow through the gi. I`ll need to check it again at some point but anything obvious ?
Ok, I just reinstalled 3.4 and checked it again, it seems to get progressively slower rendering. first frame is ok but then starts to slow down. definitely seems like something wrong as it also slows way down just on the gi prepass on the sky which is just a background environment image. mainly it seems it`s the prepass stuff that gets very slow only seems to be using a small amount of cpu too, down to 10%. speeds up if you turn off GI.
if you restart 3dsmax it speeds up again for the first frame then starts going slower again.
thanks
