3Ddelight freezes

deleted user

this is a new problem ive never encountered before. I've made hundreds of 3Delight renders and just the past few days all the sudden anything with any sort of opacity renders SOOOO slow its not even worth my time. For example, it took 1 HR & 52 Mins to render the CAP of the hair on a girl. Progressive rendering results in a crash. Wanna know the worst part?
That 2 hours of rendering the hair, was at lowest quality I can put it at.... Were talking 2 samples 2 ray trace length 8 shadow samples with a shading rate 4.0 on a 500x500 picture. I mean.. I use 3Delight because it's fast. At this rate luxrender via Reality 2.5 is calculated at 10x the speed. That's sad. Because that's the biggest drawback of lux is the render time. It's crystal clear there is a problem here.

Any UberEnvironment in the scene?

Yes. Is that the problem?

It could be one of the UE settings that is too high.
