Yeah, it seems to be just that one job that has the 350% speed loss... it's back on a regular exterior animation now with GI and is tacking 20% slower.

We're just a little pissed off that Dell sold such an underwhelming performer for $3300 when we bought servers that consistently outpace it for $2800 back in June. I mean, it does have a workstation graphics card, but it's not THAT good...

Oh well. Didn't know that was such a crap proc. Good to know, the boss is gonna be pissed we didn't research that better. ;-)

Thanks,
Shaun
