Hi @binu_alex

I’ve tried rendering a video on my end, and I haven’t encountered such slow rendering time in the latest version. Can you confirm if this issue persists in all your other files too?

You might also want to send us the following images to check:

Same problem with the latest update, even with an RTX 5070, it takes twice as long to render the same video, in fact I uninstalled the latest version and installed a version twice as old and the rendering times are normal.



Kindly listen to the community as this is not an isolated issue.
D5 2.11 has double the render time

Hi @georgeallankush

We’re listening to your feedback and are not dismissing your concerns. An issue that we’re unable to replicate means there is something with your personal setup that’s causing it, and we’re determined to find out.

If you can provide us with detailed info, just like @david12 then that will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @david12 @georgeallankush @binu_alex

This only occurs with specific files, right? Or to all of your files. Please send us the following:

You may send it to support@d5techs.com and have it titled 2.11 Clov-Forum D5 Rendering Slow and let me know if you have sent it so I can pick it up right away.

Thanks for help, I already sent over an email with a dropbox link.

Hi @david12

We have received your files. Thank you.

Hi everyone, most especially to @david12 who sent his files to us for testing

Can you please confirm if Path Tracing was enabled in 2.10?

In version 2.10, Path Tracing (PT) was an optional feature not enabled by default. In version 2.11, however, PT is enabled by default. While this provides significantly higher visual quality, it is also more demanding on performance, which may make the default rendering speed feel slower.

  • We are aware of this performance difference. If the rendering speed in 2.11 is not acceptable for your workflow, you can enable “Old GI Compatibility Mode” under Preferences → Rendering.

  • After doing our tests with your files, when Path Tracing is enabled in both versions, version 2.11 is significantly faster.

Ok This option not enabled. Anyway I will try this and let you know (Legacy D5… bit confusing- and in future release you age going to remove this option itself…)

Hi @binu_alex

Basically, it just means that enabling the D5 Legacy option turns off PT.

Yes now i can see the difference. So from next version onwards we have to wait long for final result…

@binu_alex

What do you mean? Path Tracing is expected to increase the rendering time even in previous versions.

Anyway, try to test the render speed with PT enabled in the 2.11 hotfix version, if it is already released. Thanks.
