Longest Poser render, probably about 3-4 days...

Good God.... between 5 and 6 days? Really? I was about to toss in 4 days rendering time with Carrara 3, for a 30-second 640 x 480 animation. Then again, I was using an AMD Athlon 1400 single core with only 512mb of memory and onboard 64mb video..... 6 days.... D-A-Y-U-M!

...and those times were with a Quad Core i7 and 16GB RAM. Down to scene complexity primarily... oh and the Vue render was via the batch renderer, which is CPU throttled.

Likewise, with the longest Poser render... this was using Queue Manager, which, again, seems to have some sort of throttling in play relative to the background render.

I'm tending to just go with rendering background now... it seems to be much quicker for whatever reason...
