Was wondering this if you have two machines and are using DR rendering can u add the memory together of the two machines and enter that value in the memory allocation.
Or does this happen dynamically under the hood. If I have 32gb and 32gb it would be nice to say throw say 50gb at the rendering.
I am sure this has been answered at some pint but was always wondering this.
Thanks, Jimmy
Each machine is completely separate; you can’t add memory like this.

Makes sense then is there a way to make sure you are using the most ram possible on the DR machine. Since generally you are not opening the software on those machines.
By default V-Ray uses as much memory as it need. If the scene requires all of the memory V-Ray will utilize it.
In another hand you have the option to control the amount of Dynamic memory limit (Chaos Docs) that you want to use for all of the dynamic geometry in the scene, like: Displacement, VRayProxy, VRayPlane, Metaballs, Hair and Fur , etc.
