First render takes really long.

[dshapdesign]

I have been having this problem with the newest version of V-Ray. I will start Rhino, open a file that is ready to render and hit render. The command bar will then spam "Creating rendering meshes...Press Esc to cancel" over and over again. After about 15 minutes, the frame buffer will open and the render will start. After that first render, however, I will be able to render as normal. Please help, this is wasting precious time at my workplace.

Since Vray isn't creating the render mesh I suppose so Rhino is the problem. For example if you force Rhino per _PolygonCount to create the mesh before do you still have the problem?

I tried a polygon count and I still have the problem. Is anyone else having this problem?

Is there any way that you could share the scene file with me? Here is my email: fernando.rentas@usa.chaosgroup.com
