We are using rr v7.0.16 and it is not implemented in this version.
It is not a problem for us at the moment since we only have 2 GPU per
machine.

I'm sure there was a post on the redshift forum from someone who had
managed to get RR7 working with jobs per gpu, but it sounded like it
needed a bit of time to get it right, and conversations with Holger.

Might want to double check with Holger first, I may be wrong about RR.

Oh okay, I think I got it now. We're still on RR 6 but maybe
we need to upgrade to 7 so we can have multiple render nodes
on machines.
Guess I better talk to the bossman and see about getting a
license upgrade.
Thanks Tim!

We settled on 2GPUs for most machines. A couple have 3.
Workstations have 1. Like Matt and Mirko said, because of
non-linear performance, you'll need to determine at what
point you want to parallelize.
And yes, you can have a machine with 4 cards, and 4
instances of RS each rendering on a separate card.
However, be advised that all 4 instances of RS/XSI will
pull from shared resources like the CPU and system RAM.
If you can swing Titan Xs, their 12GB of vram make a huge
difference in performance, even if the specs of the card
itself might not seem as appealing as the 908Ti.

When I was at A Large Evil Corporation we replaced around
40 cpu nodes with 8 dual gpu nodes. With 2 cards the
scaling is pretty good (around 1.85x). With 3 or 4 cards
it would definitely be worth doing one frame per gpu.

SO the question.
How do you setup your farm. Which is better? Multiple
cards per frame or a card per frame?

We're use a 'garden' really... about a dozen
dedicated machines, most with 2xTitanX cards, and
we have some workstations that can kick in if
needed. You can get through a lot with far less
than before. And if you need to upgrade, just pop
in a different card. We went from dual 770s to
dual TitanXs with zero hassle and the performance
improvement was as expected: awesome.

I'd really like us to look at Redshift but too
embedded with Vray. Keeping an eye on the
possible Max integration as that could turn heads.
How big a farm are people using for Redshift,
because we do a lot of rendering.

Hi Morten,
we're also on redshift here, and I've made
another small studio to switch too ( by
showing a few frames and the corresponding
render times ).. great stuff :)

I thought they mentioned having

partially, they were just looking
for a method on how to implement it

I could be completely wrong though.
Either way i would like the volumes
more :), sorry baking guys.

I'd say the timescale for

like complex volume rendering
will come before baking.

sorry for the

we use it extensively

Wow, it is quite
impressive what an
impact Redshift has
made already.
I have done a fair
amount of testing
with Redshift too
and find on average
scenes to be 5-10
times faster than
Arnold with
comparable quality,
plus a number of
things are simpler
to set up the way
you want it, in part
because of the rapid
feedback in the
renderregion. I have
yet to test it on
really complex
scenes, so that will
be the next thing to
check. I agree on a
lack of shader
support in certain
parts, especially
compared to
Arnold/Sitoa, so it
is reassuring that
Burtnyk and Co are
so responsive :)
We will likely also
incorporate it to
some extent when it
supports vdb and
volumetric rendering
and see where it
takes us.
