Martin, You're right, I'd forgotten for the moment that rendering to NULL will keep it from defaulting to Render Display Size. Didn't know that Chevy.3DS was a "quasi-official" benchmark, though. Probably 1280×1024, Metal, Alpha on and a Pixel Size of 1.5 would give us a long-enough render time to be useful. Why don't you try it on that Onyx, to give us all an idea what a (practically) cost-no-object machine can do with it? I'll do in on my poor old 486/66 when I decide I need an hour off <g> to give us an idea what the other end of the spectrum looks like. (Hope it'll fit in my 32 megs o' RAM!) From there we can all evolve a consensus on how to configure one .PRJ so we have something statistically useful. SCL
