Seasoned Maya user here but very new to Octane: I'm wondering if I have a setting wrong or something after installing latest Octane 2018.1.1_14.25 version to Maya2019. Seems my CPU usage is spiking high at times 45% - 95% usage when moving simple things around in viewport like spheres and planes while IPR rendering or viewport rendering. I've installed Octane in another 3d software program same machine and I'm not seeing any spikes at all just my GPU spinning up as expected. Not sure if it's a Maya version thing or just typical for the Maya Octane plug-in. Any inputs much appreciated.
thanks,
