Your speeds will also vary depending on the complexity of your scene, but you can expect to see similar numbers when rendering in Stager 2.1 for your projects. Rendering speed varies depending whether you’re working on Mac or Windows, but in both cases, the performance benefits are substantial. With the new GPU denoiser in Stager 2.1, draft render speeds are improved 70 percent and 93 percent and when rendering in high quality mode, rendering speeds are improved between 33 percent and 52 percent.
They rendered animation sequences in previous and latest releases of Stager across platforms, and then proceeded to compare the render times and the energy consumption. To demonstrate this, the Adobe Research and the Substance 3D teams ran a series of benchmarks to help illustrate the gains when using the accelerated GPU denoiser.
If you are new to Stager or an existing user, the speed of the GPU denoiser is quite substantial.
