If the scene is only crashing during render from XSIBatch, then you need to 
start checking for tools/properties that invoke any kind of a graphics call. 
XSIBatch does not support anything that invokes drawing of graphics or 
anything that calls such an API to do work.  That'll induce a crash.

2015 does fix bugs, but it also has a good number of regressions.  Which 
version is best is specified to your needs, but I think 2014 SP2 is a better 
bet in the stability department.

UI
To: "Official Softimage Users Mailing List.

I have done meticulous step by step troubleshooting going through each ref 
model, eliminating ref model and delta issues and it comes down to a 
particular ref model making the scene crash on the farm. This model renders 
fine from its master scene, so I am guessing some combination of the 
content - large displacements and large numbers of ICE scattered standins 
with high polycount, combined with passes, partitions and overrides make it 
crash, ie. a problem in the scene.

I eventually rebuilt the scene so content and passes are as clean as 
possible, and this scene crashes too.

Incidently if I have done a renderregion and save after that, it will save 
the scene, but Softimage will hang, requiring me to kill it. I am on 2015 R2 
for various reasons - I recall 2015 R2SP2 has a considerable number of 
bugfixes. Could it perhaps be that R2 has a sort of memoryleak?
