Hey there,
I´ve seen a massive increase in rendertimes in the Movie Render Queue, when using Stencil Layers.
I don´t know when this happend, but somewhere between 5.3 and 5.6 i guess.
The same sequence without additional stencil layer renders in about 2-4 minutes, with stencil layers it takes around 30 minutes, rather than the linear increase for each renderlayer (so, with only one layer enabled, it should only be like 4-8 minutes)
Warm up frames render fine, but then I have a long wait til the actual render starts and the rendering gets super slow.
Anybody else experiencing this?
I can´t remember changing any specific rendersettings in my default render preset (1/8 TSR, rendering to Multilayer EXR with DWAA, “accumulator includes alpha” checked, a few console variables and the default game overrides).
Still possible its related to something in my projects settings, I just don´t have the time to do some proper troubleshooting with a clean project at the moment, so wanted to check if its only me or if anybody else experienced that kind of slowdown.
