We’re rendering a test scene in 3d Studio Max, just a couple of objects with scanline renderer. Each of our slaves has 8GB RAM, but it seems they’re only using about 7% while rendering. Is there any way to change the slave settings to increase the average RAM usage?

Why would you expect the program to use more than it requires?
you could turn on concurrency to launch more concurrent tasks of the same job. try setting concurrent tasks to 8, for example.
or you could spawn more slaves on the machine to run different jobs concurrently. each slave consumes a license however

Generally with 3dsmax Scanline it makes sense to use concurrent tasks since it’s single threaded.
