Hi everyone and a great hello to the people at ChaosGroup!
Incredible product! I´m very very very glad with it!
Needless to say that one major wish is support for proxies.
There is one thing I´m thinking about:
I have 6 machines involved as slaves. The rendering-process is up all the time and all the cores are in use 100% all the time. Wouldn´t it be nice to implement a render-timeout, where the slaves stop rendering after a certain amount of time? In most cases the quality of the image is good enough after 5 to 15 seconds to judge the result. So there is no need for the slaves to keep up rendering all the time.
I do interrupt the work quite often for doing a phone-call, look up something in the internet or check mails. Mostly I do not want to close the Active-Shade-view because the intialization of the scene needs more time than the actual rendering. So the cores are quite often on duty although not necessary.
This would save a lot of energy and CO2-emission. A simple spinner for render-timout in seconds could do the job.
What do you think?
