Hi !

I have some problems in simple scene with packed primitives rendering. I have animated camera and static forest. I have reads before that packed primitives loads in memory only once. But i see how it re-load every frame.

I have no any animation on forest, but animated camera. I see on task manager - memory low and up on every frame. What wrong? I confused because pre-render eat A LOT of time, before starting rendering to Mplay. (is 1000 000 trees there. 50 000 primitives in model)

As i understand, packed primitives long-time loads in memory only once, and then fast rendered in all frames, right?

Mantra renders each frame independently. A separate mantra process is started for each render. So, mantra has to redo some of the work each time it renders.
