Render Node using More Ram Than Host in DR

(1/5) > >>

dj_buckley:
As the title suggests when I use DR, my render node is using nearly 15GB more RAM than the host workstation.

Any reason why?  Seems odd

dj_buckley:
Also when I start the DR server on the node it says it's using 5.8GB of RAM and it isn't even doing anything.  No other programs are open, it's a brand new machine (i9 Extreme).

My host workstation is an older twin Xeon E5-2640 v3, when rendering the i9 uses nearly 50GB of RAM and the Xeon uses around 35GB

dj_buckley:
Just bumping this - it's pretty urgent, my node is slowing down dramatically as it's maxing out the 64GB RAM, even though the scene is only using less than 40GB on the host machine.

maru:
Hi, and sorry for the delay.

First of all - is this happening only in one specific scene, or is there also a big RAM difference if you render something super simple like one teapot, one light, and one texture?

dj_buckley:
Happens on all my scenes, doesn't help that the DRServer sits idle at 7.8GB.

I've checked with a friend who uses Corona via DR and it's the same for him.

I'm due to render later and will grab a screenshot showing host ram and dr ram during the render - but they're insanely different.
