Question about Loading/processsing times in 4.02

[CANDITO]

Hello Juanjo,

i have a quick interrogation about processing times on
Octane 4, shoudn't it be faster than 3.08?
Actually, it takes around 16 secs to process 4 millions polys
(same as 3.08 on my system, LW 2015.3)
i read on the forum it should only take a sec to do this on actane 4 + later
Maybe i'm missing something ?
Thanks a lot for your help

Are you talking about the scene extraction time or the Octane pre-processing time? Octane 4 is a lot faster with the pre-processing, especially if you have a lot of instances, hairs and so on, but the extraction time, that is done on the plugin side, has not changed in these latest versions.

Thanks,
-Juanjo

Thanks Juanjo,

i see now that the update to gpus is way faster than on 3.08
with tons of instances, once the loading done.
