Render Statistics

An extensive set of tools that allow performance issues to be more easily identified and rendering processes optimized. Additional timing statistics organized by both nodes and categories can be output to HTML-based visual reports or JSON files. This makes it possible to know which objects are most expensive to render and which parts of the renderer took the most amount of time.

HTML Report

The Arnold Render Report is a visualization tool for reviewing charts and statistics such as frame time, memory usage, and texture stats for a rendered image. Enable HTML Report to generate an HTML file that includes all the render statistics.

File Path

The path and file name of the HTML report.

View Report

Opens the HTML report in a web browser.

JSON Statistics

Creates a json file with the render statistics and information that you can see in an Arnold log. If you use append mode, you get a file with the separate statistics for each render (for example, each frame in a sequence, or each pass in an IPR render).

File Path

The path and file name of the JSON statistics file.

Stats Mode

In append mode, each render is added to the statistics. In overwrite mode, you get just the last render.

Profile

Saves detailed profiling visualizations by outputting trace information into a file, such as "my_profile.json". You can then load the file into the Googles Chrome web browser " chrome://tracing/ " or into https://www.speedscope.app/.

Profile File Path

The path of the file where the profile will be written.
