Code: Select all
I've deleted the next lines to stay in the allowed character
Hm, this is where it gets interesting.
Can you make another post with that part of the log?

Code: Select all
[LuxCore][27.703] [PathOCLBaseRenderThread::0] Compiling kernels
[LuxCore][141.219] [PathOCLBaseRenderThread::0] Kernels not cached
It takes about 2 mins to compile the kernels at the very first run but it should happen only the first time

it's basically a repetition of the last few lines, like this, many many times, until 10 seconds of preview are over:
Code: Select all
get_changes(): checking for config changes took 1.0 ms
get_changes(): checking for camera changes took 0.0 ms
view_draw(): checking for changes took 1.0 ms
view_draw(): session.WaitNewFrame() took 4.0 ms
view_draw(): session.UpdateStats() took 0.0 ms
view_draw(): framebuffer update took 20.0 ms
view_draw(): framebuffer drawing took 1.0 ms
view_draw(): showing stats in UI took 0.0 ms
view_draw() took 29.0 ms
sorry but it's too long also for this post:

I think that here is when everything stays freezed for a while:

Well, but this is an OK refresh rate (35 fps).
Doesn't look slow to me.

This is the one-time kernel compilation. It happens only once for the viewport render (and once for the final render), then the kernels are cached and this step will take 0 time.

the kernel compilation happens every time I switch to rendered view? I don't know why but it's still laggy, the shading process is very difficult and sometimes it freezes. I can barely guess how hard can be develope a render engine, mine are not complainings but feedback to develpe a strong and powerful engine ready for professional work, thank you for this awesome tool

The UI text "compiling kernels" is outdated, I have not yet removed it (it's a dev build after all).
You have to check the console log to see if it's actually compiling kernels (it should say "kernels cached" after the one-time compilation, which means it doesn't need a recompile anymore).
What hardware do you have?

I've same problems. Is it possible don't compiling just once and not anymore? Like Cycles do this.

Normally compil once for ever is for Luxcore 2.4 (just install a build)
