Hey folks!
First off, thanks to the team for such an awesome render engine! Amazingly simple and beautiful results.
I was looking at building a machine that would run Corona and assumed that being a CPU renderer that more CPUs would obviously be better. However in practice what I found was that my 5 year old home system with an i7 920 with 6GB ram or something like that, rendered a simple product viz style scene (basic tv, with glossy materials on a reflective glossy floor and 3 corona area lights) slightly faster than my work system, which is a dual Xeon E5 2643 and 12GB ram.
Is it just that on such a simple scene that the extra power awarded by the Xeon's is not noticeable? Would I notice a much bigger difference on an interior scene that relied on indirect lighting more?
I just thought it was odd, and was quite disappointed to not see my render time halved!
