I'm a little stuck on how to approach this in the most efficient way. I created a scene in the object level and imported it to the stage level.

There i created different light setups which i would like to render out separately. So i connected a sceneimport to 2 different merge nodes. on each merge there are a few lights, and a single camera animation, connected to both merges.

After each merge node i connected a karma node. simple as that. Now i'd like to render them both. Which i can do by clicking on "render in background".

This is pretty simple, but it feels a bit cumbersome. clicking on that button makes my pc freeze for about 10 seconds which is for 2 buttons 20 seconds. no big deal of course. but i can totally imagine trying like 10 different light setups. or 20.

can i create 1 single "render all" button?

Also, if i want to change the settings of the karma node, i'd like to change the settings of all of them at the same time. There is the "render settings" node, got the feeling this is gonna help me with that, but so far i wasn't smart enough to figure out how it works exactly

Is this where TOPS comes in? Can anyone point me in the right direction?
