Has anyone got any suggestions as to why the osx maxwell is much slower on my machine.

imac 24'' core 2 duo using the speed test scene on both

under os x i get a benchmark of around 20

under xp (bootcamp) i get a benchmark of around 60, which is what other users have posted as getting under os x.

-whats going on? both done using maxwell 1.1

any help would be great :x

are you sure you are using the UB version ?

It only came out a few weeks ago.

The Cinemaxwell plug-in only works with PPC, since there is no UB version until now.

But, MXCL, the renderer is UB, so no speed loss.
