Why is my rendering so slow? Oct. 1, 2013, 4:54 a.m.
Hello, I was just messing around with Houdini FX and made a small animation of a cube sliding. When I tried to render it with a mantra node (1x1 pixel sample size and 1 max ray samples), I was surprised how slow it was! It's just a simple cube with a camera.
When it actually renders a frame it goes by fairly quickly. But it waits between each frame for a very long (more than 20 seconds) and seems like it isn't doing anything.
So I thought maybe my computer was too slow (laptop) so I moved to my desktop which has a 1GB Nvidia card and quadcore i7 and it still ran just as slow! Any ideas what the issue might be? I attached my file below.
