Xeon skylake-sp supports avx. Will vray next use avx to improve performance?
See here, it kind of already does on newer CPUs
“V-Ray doesn’t use AVX instructions.”
“While we don’t use AVX instructions intentionally, we switched to the Microsoft C++ compiler for V-Ray Next (it gives us slightly better performance), and the C++ library of Microsoft may use AVX instructions if those are available. We don’t really have control over this, unfortunately.”
