[snip] You are using scalability between the nodes. Shadowing is a global operation, that is, each source channel has to render the full shadow map. Unless addressed specifically, this kills performance since the rendering is no longer parallelizable. Remark 1: Why don't you simple use a multi-view config, where each node only renders for itself (similar to hactar.eqc) Remark 2: If you need scalability, configure it like 5-pipe.cave.lb.eqc HTH, Stefan. _______________________________________________ eq-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.equalizergraphics.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/eq-dev http://www.equalizergraphics.com
