This may have been asked before, could not find any answers so here's my question.

What will be the difference between a model rendered with coop. rendering for 8 hrs and a model just rendered out for 8 hrs on a single machine (same model) ? I know it's not speed. Will it reach a higher SL?

Hope my question is clear.

Let's try a different explanation this time

Single Node Render
# of nodes = 1
Rendertime = t1
Reached SL = x

Cooperative Render
# of nodes = n
Rendertime = t2
Reached SL = y

y>x where n>1 and t1=t2
y=x where n>1 and t1>t2

Thank you Tom.

is render time that count... so more machine=more render time wih means highier sample level.......
how much plus render time is gained thruogh the cooperative render dipend on processor power on the single machine involved in render process...
but as we al know the relazionship beween render time and sample level is not at all proportional but is asimpthotic

got it giacob, thanks
