Hi All,
I have been comparing sending a job to Deadline using the VRay Export Job option vs. using Create V-Ray Create proxy within Maya - see image.
What I observe is that via Deadline, the host will freeze up after running RAM usage to 200GB and you need to manually kill mayabatch.
Running in Maya on the same node interactively, it processes the cache properly, only consuming 9GB of memory or so.
I can send you the file if you like, just let me know a way to do that privately.
Thank you!
