Hey jsmack,

That definitely helped. Thanks. Am I losing any functionality disabling indexing... other than the obvious performance of using the help system? It still ramps up but not nearly as badly. Thanks again guys for the help.

I haven't noticed any downsides.

have you disabled background help indexing?

Yes I already saw that, but I want/need more control over fake caustics ? Can’t we access it by a different path, a bit like in blender where you can control the shape and brightness off it ?

You can easily do this with a vex material. I'm not sure if there is the state information to do a ray switch on shadowray with MaterialX though.
