Swarm Agent stops processing after some time

Hello guys,

I have 2 maschines connected via cable on a router. EURO3D has the swarm coordinator running and EURO3D-LAPTOP is my remote swarm agent. After hitting build in UE4 Editor on EURO3D the remote maschine EURO3D-LAPTOP gets connected. But after some time EURO3D stops processing.

Did I set something wrong in the swarm agent settings?

Cheers
Marcel

Hi Marcel,

Your settings look fine from what I can see and you’ve got distribution to the other machine, which is good.

Sometimes what can happen is that there are not enough tasks (separate components) to go around for the different machines. So if you think about it this way, if you have 4 machines that are being distributed to and each has 8 cores then the scene needs to have approximately 4 * 8 * 4 components to actually use all those cores. This means ~128 components for each. So with your setup you would need ~64 separate components. And since only separate components can be sent to different machines this may be the difference you’re seeing.

Looking at what you’ve setup in Swarm Agent’s settings does look correct though
