Quote - Does someone have a render of a dense scene where cap the render time at 2 minutes?  So basically make reality 3 render a somewhat dense scene in under 2 minutes and let's see what it looks like.

 

You will however see a full representation of the whole scene, it will be noisy but it is there.

Another thing to try is suspending a Firefly render and resuming it from the point it was suspended a few days later.  Of course you can't, does that mean Firefly is rubbish, of course not.  Horses for courses. 

If your artwork is simple and can be rendered in two minutes and you are happy with it fine.  In my experience two minutes in Firefly is not enough to give a render of V4 with a good skin tone, in fact I am lucky if I have the top of her head from the indirect light scan at that point.

So with a V4 render at say 2000X1500 pixels after two minutes Luxrender wins hands down because you can see Vicky.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
