Hey all
So like everyone else, I am always on a mission to find ways to speed up my renders. Im not using a bad rig, all my renders are done by GPU which for me is GTX 970 with 8GB graphics memory.
Whilst waiting for my renders I often search online for ways to speed things up and generally come across the same stuff, Some factual, and some seemingly entirely speculative.
One thing that is frustrating me though is how people talk about Manual oversampling. Every post ive read on it says with great authority "Manual oversampling works" but nobody ever provides any facts or better still numbers to show optimal oversampling percentages etc etc, they always just say "blah blah it does 1.5 times so you can do the math..." well no actually the relationship between Image resolution, and convergence required to provide a satisfactory result has not been explain in the "blah blah" so we cant do the math.
Anyway ranting aside, I want to know if anyone HAS actually run the numbers and provided a Rule of thumb for this? I will gladly do it myself but its not a 5 minute job so I wont waste my time if someone has already done it.
