It certainly would make sense if that big cluster contains a whole bunch of fat GPUs - that's being done currently, no? You'd need a pretty powerful network connection though, but that depending on the dataset with which you're working, prerendered frames might actually be smaller than the dataset they are supposed to visualise. >No, because you can’t send any complete objects from the view layer across to >the X server.
