Hi all,
This is probably a Windows-only thing...
We render lots of 3D through Maya/V-Ray and we include the workstations
in our farm. Most of the time it works very well to work in Maya
parallel with Maya background rendering and you can hardly notice it if
you are i.e. modeling/texturing.
However, if I launch up Nuke, that bogs down everything. Nuke acts like
glue and basically freezes up completely and also the Maya render is
going slower it seems. One remedy to this is to open up the task manager
and set the priority "Realtime" to Nuke6.3.exe. Then Nuke starts working
perfectly and the background render is going strong as well.
Would it be possible to start up an application (Nuke) with this
realtime priority at launch so that we wouldn't have to do this manually
whenever a background render kicks in – or another, perhaps better solution?
Anyone? :)
Hi,
Nuke by default runs its threads with low priority, run Nuke with:
--priority high
and it will prioritise its threads higher, so they should get more CPU
time...
Cheers,
Peter
