Cpu Usage

Post by vpii »

I am rendering scene and I see the cpu at 100% durring FG pass but when it gets to AA it slows to 40% to 90% is this normal? or is there something wrong with my computer?

It could be a bug. Could you provide the scene (as simple as possible) so we can check it?

Any one out there had any trouble with Kray using all the CPU speed? I have a i7 920 and I am seeing speeds of 10 to 90% in the task manager. Any special settings that need to be done in bios? Rendering in Lightwave render is 100% very confused here.

dbl post. update I just loaded old scene and it is rendering 100 cpu now. Could the model slow render speed? I know it can make it render slow but in my case it is all over the place ever second.

It could be some surface issue rather than model itself... Try finding the offending surface and then report back so we can check it.

First try disabling nodes. Those are most often cause of problems. But if you find the problematic surface please send it to us because we need to check this problem.

Use Kray surface override and select "disable all". If this helps then it means it's surface problem. Otherwise it's something else.
