Just tried to render a tree model in octane 1.5 and 2.17 and looks like 1,5 works quite a lot quicker. Am I missing something?

Had to admit I hardly understand where all the settings are now after being accustomed to 1,5 interface so perhaps something is different in the default 2,17 settings.

the samples per second can be lower, but the speed could be higher. There are also other settings you can use to speed it up now. Coherent ratio with path tracing at .5 gives me about 2x speed on some scenes. Mess with path term power as well. It lets you decide how long rays stay in shadows to clear it up. less time in the shadows means the overall image cleans up quicker.

thanks for the advice. Still it works somehow slower. Looks like not exactly the render but how it rotate the scene in the view-port
