Thanks for the scene.

It doesn't matter, that it uses bidir, does it?

I've uploaded the - slightly modified - scene. (I've removed the textures, hdri, and other unrelated things.)
This time I only used 50 samples for the sake of quickness.

The re-rendered test images:

I can imagine, that the only problem in the case of my lamp scene is the lamp itself, so it has overly bright parts that eats up the samples, although they will be simply white in the final image. Well, no. I've blocked out most of the lampshade, and the adaptive render still looks noisier than non...

I can imagine, that the only problem in the case of my lamp scene is the lamp itself, so it has overly bright parts that eats up the samples, although they will be simply white in the final image.

So, I've first seen the issue with this scene (100 samples in both case, warmup and test step is 5 with adaptivity): adaptivity-test1.png But the samplecount difference by brightness is there in the simplest case too (50 samples, warmup and test step is 1): adaptivity-test2.png I've attachet this se...

It looks like brighter parts get much more samples.
I'm not in front of PC right now. Do you need an example scene?

Does the daily build contain the new adaptive sampling, and does it work with bidir?

It lets you use UV coordinates to map procedural 3D textures onto a mesh:

Looks promising, thank you!

I like the result! The noise looks much more balanced.
