mutation_per_sec

Hi!
I'm testing an interior scene made with blender and .exr image. It has 36908 faces and Indigo v0.6 renders it at 4500 mut_per_sec... Isn't it too slow? Is it normal or I can simplify something??
Here first test after 30h... and some PP. I think very noisy!

Depends on your hardware! On which machine do you let it run?

Hi.
My machine is Pentium4- 2,5Mhz - and ram 768 Mb.
Maybe are there too many blackbody?

A question:
Does it exist a render-farm for Indigo user?

4500 is damn slow for this machine I think. Did you used it while rendering?

It depends on the version, 0.6v2 has less mutations but each one does more. 0.6v1 might as well but I'm not sure.

Not one I know of but you can easily use more than one computer over a network, I believe radiances excellent tutorial covers this.

(since ive already done it for someone else) pust the xml & files in a zip and ill try rendering for you if you want.

Thanks "eman7613". I post xml file and textures: zip file is big (10MB) but if you have time... so you can tell me at how many mutations your computer works.

...strange!! I'm testing now same file with Indigo v0.5 and it seems faster; faster about mutations_per_sec. With v0.5 they're around 13500, with v0.6T1 around 5000!!!

ill try it tonight on my laptop, desktop will be busy

i just tried on my laptop it was at about 16300 mutations per second usig both cores on my laptop, ill try with .5 but i can only use one core then

edit: weird, on one core i got an average of 9500 mutations per second using .5

hi 8bstudio
i think indigo is not very fast if you have much faces in you objects. Big objects should better bw splitted in multiple objects.
Or in other words: 10000 objects with 10 faces are faster than 10 objects with 10000 faces.

regards zuegs

i had that with a plant (it was 600 seperate object and it urend it into 3) it worked the other way around for me exporting the file but rendering didnt make a diference

Thanks to all!!
for Zuegs: yes, I'll try to split some object.
thanks to Eman7613 to have tried with my xml. Now with v0.5 I have 13500 mut per sec... without "lucernario" mesh.

Another question: can time-render depends by textures dimension?
