Could also be due the unfinished volumetric stuff atm.

But too early to fill a matis-report i think, let´s wait for RC-phase.

What you can do in any case:

- use QBVH-accelerator ( should be 30% less mem-footprint than others )
- set intancing thresh to a lower value ( perhaps this default has changed ? )

Thanks for the tips, will have a look and report !

OK, so i tested with the settings you suggested and it was even worse !
This time the memory footprint got up to 10+ GB !!

I guess i'll wait a little longer to test this 0.7 with heavy scenes !
Too bad as the lighting power seems to be a lot more "realistic" than with 0.6.1 where you have to put ridiculously low level in order to have a good looking lighting setup.

Anyway, it's great to be able to test 0.7 in its early stage, and it seems to be working already quite well on lightweight scenes.

Wierd, should be right the opposite

But as being in the middle of material-transitions and volumetric work, i would not take care atm.

Let´s see how it behaves when volumes + glass2 is finished.

Thanks a lot Jens for the builds you provide.
I'll test this one with my scenes to see how it behaves and report.

Hehe, i'm "here" wherever there is something related to 3D and render !
And LuxRender is one hell of a render engine, that's for sure !

If you add the fact that it's interfaced with Cheetah, you get the picture !
