I usually always use UHD Cache for all renders in corona, but this new animation I am rendering which is a clubhouse with exteriors and interiors seem to be so slow.  The exteriors render fast so far, the interiors take a long time to calculate the UHD Cache.  Never had it take this long before. I even merged the scene into a new one thinking maybe their was an issue with the scene. I changed to 4K Cache and it calculates GI way faster.  I guess I can stick to 4K Cache, but is there any known issues with rendering an animation with it?  I'm just worried since I guess it's still testing since it's not default solution?

I'm using corona 6, not the hotfix ones because I thought I read in another thread there was a bug introduced.

Hi,

4k cache should be fine for the most part. There are certain situations where it could perform worse than the UHD cache which is why we decided to label it as experimental.

You should be fine to use Corona 6 HF1, we tried to fix some bugs in that version ;)

Cheers,

Rowan

Thank you, moving forward with 4k Cache since it's a lot faster.
