I've tried the 12a beta today, most of my renders come out as expected, 
however, scenes imported from Daz via PoseRay regardless of settings or ini 
file just sits after the parse, I checked the processor load and memory 
during several of the tests. Processor load goes back down to 50% and memory 
used down to 300MB immediatly after parse (it will incline close to 900MB on 
most of my more complex scenes) instead of staying high until end of render. 
Theories anyone? BTW 3.6 has no trouble rendering the scenes, just takes 
twice as long (single thread) Once I find my copy of Blender I'll try 
importing an OBJ from it instead to see if there is a difference. I did run 
the scenes that I knew had meshes in them as well as running that grass 
macro (uses a mesh) from the Gilles cloud tutorial with a few million blades 
to see if there was too many triangles.
Thanks in advance,
Jonathan
