Render Times

[Kraig_Cline]

Has anyone else had issues with render times exponentially longer since 3.5 release? Unless I'm running at draft quality my render times are in the days.. I'm estimating this because I don't have that kind of wait time and am going off of 1% render after 6 hours. Also I have 7 computers working in the render process.

Kraig, can you also share your machine configuration and the scene size as well?
Do you mind sending us the scene, so that we can test it in our environment and investigate the potential reasons for this slow down?

Thank you,
Ana

Can you try switching from Progressive to Buckets in settings? Do you get the same result for time?

I also noticed a slower render times with the new 3.5 update. I changed the settings to buckets for all modes and it seemed to help speed up the render time for me.

+1 For me as well, I tried rendering a scene I had rendered with the previous version and it was painfully slow.

Thank you for the progressive to bucket suggestion. That did the trick!
