Thanks for the replies. It was difference between corona 8 and 9. Crazy how the render time is 3x faster in some cases.

[Max] General Discussion / Lightmix math

Hello,
Sorry if the toppic is spammy, due to deadline can't test things to be 100% sure (and I need to be in this technical case).

If the corona lightmix intensity setting on the light was 3, then it means value of light 200 in the lightmix equals 600? If I changed the settings in lightmix to 1 and changed the light intensity in the light sourse from 200 to 600 the results will be the same ?

Shortly - 200 intensity in the light parameters and x3 in lightmix = 600 in the light parameters and x1 in lightmix? Or will slight error occur?
Does it goes the same for the output in bitmap of HDRI amount ?

Best,
Alex

[Max] General Discussion / Corona renderer speed differences

Hello,
I'm baffled at the speed of rendering and what is wrong with my machine.
Im using 3960x and my gf is using 5950x both 128gb RAM.
Her machine renders an image in 3hours (5950x), my machine (3960x) in 8 hours something the same scene!!
Im done with 112 passes, shes done with 10 passes the noise limit is the same (5%).
What is interesting, my machine produces more rays than hers, and still much much slower.
I don't understand what causes such massive difference. Hes machine is like 2.5x faster in terms of rendering.
Also to mention - she's using corona 9 and I'm corona 8.

Any ideas?
