I’ve noticed that in the latest version (and several previous versions) that rendertimes when using Batch Rendering are significantly longer; approximately double the time, depending on the scene. I’ve run several tests, and haven’t been able to figure out the issue.
Version: 3.5.2
Output: 2550 x 1434 png
3 images, from 3 Scenes selected in the batch menu.
140sec = 47sec per image
1 still, rendered individually
21sec
I’ve tried:
Checking / unchecking “Save Enscape Sun Position” in the view menu. No affect.
Using all the standard resolution settings. No change.
I’ve noticed this too, but I don’t really mind about that
Enscape has to change the scene/view, change sun position/settings, FOV, and whatever sketchup settings are applied to that new scene… and even recalculate if you are using individual settings for each scene
If you render it individually you have to take into account the amount of time it takes YOU to change the scene manually and then press render again
I usually just press batch render and go for a 10 minute brake
Hello, do you notice these slowdowns only with Hardware Accelerated Ray Tracing enabled? These slowdowns are expected because whenever the camera moves abruptly (and not smoothly) from one position to another, we recreate the structures that help us to perform ray tracing on the GPU.
If you render a still, the camera doesn’t move so less things need to be processed for the capture.
If you think that this slowdown is not acceptable, I will ping @Demian_Gutberlet to continue the discussion so that this is reported properly.
