Houdini Main Changelogs

18.5.191

Work items in PDG nodes that support caching will now always affect the cache state of downstream work items. For example, if a node with the cache mode parameter set to Automatic ends up writing a new file to disk, all downstream nodes that also use caching will have their results invalidated. Those items will also need to recook, unless they have their cache setting set to Read Files.

There is also a new HOUDINI_PDG_CACHE_DEBUG environment variable that can be set to a value between 0 and 3 in order to get debug output about why PDG is or is not loading a file from cache. A value of 0 means the output is disabled, and a value of 3 is the most detailed output.
