Question about Render Lagginess
Hi guys, just a general "experience" question,
I have a new machine, which the system info can be found in my forum signature here. Here's the situation.
When I render, I always set dynamic memory limit to 4000. I know that VfSU prides for having the ability to continue working on SketchUp files whilst the selected scene is being rendered, but boy how I wouldn't do so because the whole computer lags big time for me. The lag is just unbearable that I decided to do final-rendering whenever I had free time instead (meal breaks, bath, toilet breaks, client meetings, etc), not to mention if there is something wrong with the scene and I had to re-render back.
So the concern here is if setting dynamic memory limit lower than 4000 is a viable solution, or does it affect the render performance in relation to computer usage as a whole when you have 16GB of RAM. I am not even sure if this lag relates to RAM capacity, how much dynamic memory limit we set, or even the computer processor speed (i7 2600 for my machine).
It helps if anyone experienced over this field can share their insight on this. I really want to make good use of this machine's good RAM amount while it performs rendering, which is the reason I bought it at first place.
And as always, thank you in advance for any incoming replies and comments. Cheers.
