I want to set up a Local Render Farm for an Animation. I got it to Work But my Slaves are taking forever to update the scene for each Frame (stuck for a long time atUpdating Lookup Tables and/or Updating Lights)
A standalone Render Takes about 2 minutes. The Scene loading time on the slave about 3 so it is slower at the Moment to Render in Farm.
Is there something i can do to solve this issue ?
Maybe manually copying the blend file.
Or is there an option to Render whole Frames as Slaves and not sharing each Frame ?
With best regard
Henrik

First of all thank you for your answer.
I found out that the CPU ist in 100% load for each Slave even though it was set to GPU only.
I found out that i had to Switch zu cuda manually on every Slave to Work with GPU.
This suprisingly fixed the Other issue too.
At the end i think it wasn't the sync time at all. IT seems that my slaves were so busy Rendering with CPU that they didn't send Feedback to the master. IT Tool a Long Time dir the spu because the tolle size was Set quite high for GPU Rendering.
Now it is working!
Each 6k frame Takes 2 Minutes Not 5. Thats a huge time saver!!
