I think it should be ok for OTOY to make some EOL pricing for EOL version of their EOL plugin. It is not fair to pay full subscription price for just using the render engine indefinitely without updates.

I woke up this morning thinking what to do next. This news will make me sleep better. Thank you so much!

Same here. Crashes as soon as I hit out of core with 3GB or more on mine 2070s 8 GB card. I have to turn off denoising and RTX and then it will maybe work. NVlink doesn't help/doesn't work.
Back to 4.05.
Maybe one day when I buy 24 GB card I will be back. It has been over a year now and my ...

Any word on fixing this in next version?
