Hi Byron

what kind of memory issues? I've had problems before rendering very large print
res files which were actually being caused by the default manner in which
windows handles its swap files... are the problems due to the weight of the
geometry in the scene or the resolution of the textures you are using?

If it's a speed/memory issue and you are only rendering single frames, then you
could also try spreading the load of one file over several processors via the
ray3hosts file.... This *may* help..

And are you only using FG or are you using GI as well? I have found that GI is
extremely suseptable to problems in geometry (twisted/broken polys for instance
) and also non-hermatic scenes.
