Hi,

We have migrated to 3dsmax 2010 sp1 with Vray sp4, all last ones, and while rendering 3dsmax.exe process doesn’t take 100% by a wide margin, sometimes it begin at 100% and then slowdown at 15%, or start rendering directly around 10%, etc. Sometimes, it stay at 100% ...
Even on same machine, we render at 15%, restart max, it’s ok, sometimes we need to restart/rerender several time, etc.
We also have 3dsmax process that very often stay launched, so we quit max, but sometimes later in process, there is several 3dsmax.exe (not working but taking ram). Dunno if related. Performance check have been done with only one max instance launched.

Windows xp pro x32, on mono quadcore or dual-xeon quads.
We had previously 3dsmax9 and never had this problem.

What can we do ? It kills rendertimes on our entire renderfarm, really a pita.

Regards,
Kib
