Can you update us on any progress on the headless rendering?

Thanks,

Probably 3.08, but if it gets done before June it could make it in 3.07

Can you provide any info on expected performance? I mean, does OpenCL version on AMD GPU run comparably to CUDA version on Nvidia, or is it faster/slower/different? I mean significantly different, 10 percent difference either way does not matter.

Would rather not buy GTX 1080Ti now. only to find out its 3X faster on AMD Vega and OpenCL 3 months from now

The odds on that are somewhere between 0 and .00001.

Any early AMD support is going to be unoptimized. It will be a lot of work to make it performant, and we can't really start in that until we know user stability and deployment is solid. It's at least as much work as our time spent on Pascal tuning.

You guys are doing amazing! Keep it up.
Let me know how I can help.

Any update?
