Quick question regarding animation and memory

[Ndawg]

Paul,

Quick question, I promise. I rendered 240 (960 x 640) animated path frames in Rhino (did not use Bongo).

My computer was extremely sluggish after rendering all frames (until a reboot): is this a result of my videocard's ram (660 ti 3gb) or my system ram (24gb)--or both?

(Just for my own information in future computer builds.)

Thank you,
Nathan

Are you using the latest version of Octane for Rhino? There was a memory leak that got fixed in one of the more recent versions. Check your RAM during the animation - if it's constantly building up then it's due to the memory leak.

Thanks for that information. I have 1.20.1 beta 64_Test installed on August 28th.

I'm assuming that's the latest release unless I'm told otherwise?

Is it still sluggish after shutdown and then restarting Rhino? If you open task manager, what is it reporting the memory used of your PC to be - and what is Rhino using after the animation?
