Rendering Problem

#1

Hey all,

Run into a strage thing I’d like to figure out how to fix…

I have my finished flow - with a saver node at the end of it.
I configure the path to save the image files to, hit render, and it begins to render just fine - but after a few frames, my cache fills up (have 1GB system ram), and the render slows down dramatically.

If I right click the cache indicator at the bottom and click “purge cache”, the rendering speeds up dramatically again.

So what im wondering is - how can I render directly to my hard drive without using cache?

In globals set to 10% ram before render…

you can also set to “one frame” and uncheck “simultaneous branching” per speed of computer.

Awesome… worked like a charm.

This should really be a default option, or be enabled by a checkbox when rendering to files.
