What is resizable Bar?

This seems to make my renders go MUCH faster.

I have not done any formal tests. It seems to make multi tasking very sluggish while I am rendering I cannot do much else with my PC though when this is on.

It also seems to make Iray MUCH faster.

Any thoughts on this?

It seems to give the PC access to the video ram of the Graphics card. This might allow sharing of render tasks more possible, I don't really know.

    It's a hardware parameter that determines how much data can be transferred between your host address space and the GPU's address space in a single transfer. It's like DMA for GPUs.

    I have not noticed any difference in render times.

    Yeah, unlike games that constantly transfer data to the GPU, I wouldn't expect this to affect render times much.

    I think it can speed up if you are using memory versus speed. But I could be just imagining things. smiley
