Threads for Visual Preview generation - jrg63 - 2022-02-18

Hi

I noticed that you redid how visual previews are generated and it appears to work well using 8 threads to do the work. I have a CPU with 64 threads, is there a place where I can increase the # of threads used to generate visual previews?

Thanks
Jacques Giraud

You can change the number of parallel processes under Settings / Expert Settings.

Both are set for the recommended values (64 & 32) but it only does 8 previews at a time

That sounds strange. How do you know how many it's doing in parallel?
Please send the log with the 64 threads and some activity (creating visual previews, doing internal export and render)..

Anyway, that values seem a bit high to me I'd start trying set them to half the value if you get issues.

I can tell its doing 8 at a time just by looking at the display as the ones that its rendering turn pink. I'll send the logs shortly
