Animation: Preparation while rendering

Hi

when rendering an animation, the process is switching between preparing (voxelizing, ...) the frame then rendering with the GPU. I guess preparation uses mainly the CPU, which shouldn't interfere with rendering on the GPU(s), so wouldn't is be possible to prepare the next frame while rendering the current frame?

Best regards

Excellent idea. When the scene is too complex, preparation time can take longer than rendering itself.

Or another idea is to use multiprocessing. Now only one core is working.
