hi i make a coop test with 2 pc
1)master p4 ht 3ghz 1gb ram
2)slave celeron 705mhz 128mb ram

here is the results:

(master only)
Time elapsed: 5m, 18s
Done 19003000.000000 mutations (39.589583 mutations per pixel)
mutations_per_sec: 59644.905333

(master & slave)
Time elapsed: 5m, 20s
Done 22260500.000000 mutations (46.376042 mutations per pixel)
mutations_per_sec: 69386.489220

here is the reference images for compare...

Heee seems you got hold of the exporter .. great ...

but for the comparison ... the second PC with only 700MHz does not seem
to make a big difference here..

cheers

Heya wzn,

I guess it depends on the power of the machine that you'll use to
run the manager on ... 'cause it has to combine the whole data. ;o)

take care

So any idea how well Indigo scales with more computers ?
Like would 1 machine that takes 12 hours to render a frame,
would 12 machines render it in 1 hour ?

cheers

It all depends on the power of each machine. My main comp can render a given scene at 40k muts/sec while my older comp can render at 15k muts/sec. Add them by network and you get 55k muts/sec. But it also depends on your scene. One scene i made was rendered at 23 000 muts/sec on my main comp but only 300 muts/sec on my other comp

Youll need to experiment to see what speed boosts you can get

Thanks Maluminas,
If I every get some free time, it will be spent playing with Indigo.
It looks brilliant.
