You'll see 'Generation Completed in a number of seconds.” This is the number you'll want to take note of to submit in our survey. You should see a log, find your toolpath and double-click it to open the results. Also, CTRL+L or CMD+L will open this log window.

When that's finished, click the Task Manager - I pinned it to the toolbar.

To do that right-click on each one and click Generate - also CTRL or CMD+G with one toolpath selected will generate. Right-click inside the new window and turn off the selection, 'Auto Remove.' Close that window, we'll be back here in a bit.Ĭlick Utilities at the top and then on the left turn off the 'Automatic In-Process Stock Generation.' Note: For accurate results kill all your other apps so they don't eat any of your processing power.

You'll need to change a few settings to make grab the processing time. However, it's just extremely hard to believe that this could be true, particularly when I consider the many other kinds of rendering that you can do on either CPU or GPU, where GPU pulls away with a 10:1 lead if not more.Head to the Manufacturing space. This one I have no expertise on and so I can't really say one way or another if it is true, and if it is, this alone would be enough of a reason for using CPU over GPU I guess, despite the validity of any other point. Being lots faster on the easy scenes is not really important to us. And the biggest, most expensive scenes are the ones where GPUs are only marginally faster. It's only very recently that GPU ray tracing could match the best CPU-based ray tracing code, and even though it has surpassed it, it's not by much, not enough to throw out all the old code and start fresh with buggy fragile code for GPUs. Ray tracing is very incoherent (each ray can go a different direction, intersect different objects, shade different materials, access different textures), and so this access pattern degrades GPU performance very severely. GPUs are great at highly coherent work (doing the same things to lots of data at once). Don't believe the hype, ray tracing with GPUs is not an obvious win over CPU.
