octane have rendered 600 frame without pb. It's very strange !

if it happens again, check Console output for export times. If you see interesting stuff please notify me. I'm not sure where is the time loss, on export or rendering. Also try to check gpu usages while rendering this frames.borisrabant wrote:octane have rendered 600 frame without pb. It's very strange !

The new render was done without pb. If I didn't have the screenshot of the first render I would think I'm crazy

I've made a test. I save copy the same and make another render. Same problem at frame 191.
Here is the log :

could you check gpu's? Also please see render image's bottom for info. Let's compare ms/sec values

gpu-z doesn't see any cuda device
So I can't check Gpu.
I'm making render to check ms/sec

You could fill in the information on your signature (like the other users) in order to help on situations like these. Which GPU are you using?borisrabant wrote:gpu-z doesn't see any cuda deviceSo I can't check Gpu.

It seems you were right ! I've disable app nap on octane and C4D (cmd i on each app) and I've rendered 3 different old projects without problem.
Thanks a lot.
