I've just run cinebench r23 on the notebook and the results seems to be +/- on the good ratio with 19.000 points.
So I just wondering why this ratio is so different with a 13th gen proc.

Modeling workstation:
i9 13900 ks, msi z690 ace, 128Go DDR5 5600MHz (4000MHz because xmp does not work with 4 sticks... another story...) , rtx 4090 suprim X, windows 11
It renders until the end but crashes when it populates results...
-> 44s,  11 185 291 rays

Notebook workstation (MSI RAIDER GE77HX)
i9-12900HX, 64Go DDR5 4800MHz, RTX 3080TI, win 11 (also crash at the end)
-> 1.13m, 6 308 106 rays

Rendering station (5 years +)
Dual xeon E5 2696 V4, 128 Go DDR3 2133MHz, GTX 1080 Rog Strix, Z10 PE-DW WS, windows 10
-> 48s, 10 710 948 rays

The result in cinebench R23 tells a different story... +38.000 points for I9 13900ks and +28.000 points for the xeons (quite huge as difference...)
It makes me questioning. Does bucket rendering takes more advantage of the processor power? Does corona can take full advantage of 12 or 13th gen proc architecture?
If we use blind maths the I9 should have been rendered in about 32s.

Just trying to understand... Any guess?

Would love to have somthing like this...
Sometimes some objects does not need as much pass as some others. I think it could speed up the rendering.

What do you think guys?

After months of coding apps and websites for my job, I needed to take a break with dev stuffs.
I wanted to spend one day on a personal project in 3D. But what to do in just one day... then I saw the Gretel & Handsel movie poster and I liked the mood of it. So why not giving it a try!
Easy modeling, a lot of scattering,... yep I can do it :)

Really nice
