Hello, nice and good artistic and abstract triangles seen in the presets thumbnails in the filter page, and I like them, BUT I have not been able to render them, because is too slow and have been waiting and nothing happened, after 4 minutes nothing appeared, perhaps I should wait more, and this is for any of the presets at 600x600.

You can also try turning off the AO as a preview to the triangles....Then from there if you like an abstract turn that AO back on..  Stupid things happen to computers for stupid reasons at stupid times!

Well, as you suggested, I have tried with turning off all the AO and then selected image resolution 600x600 and preset 1
It has taken almost 25 minutes to make this small 600x600 without any AO
I have an Intel i7 2600K Quad Core 3.4GHz so this is not very slow or very old so it could take so much time
I have seen also that by default the preset has an Antialias value of 9 Samples and "all pixels"
I will try what happens with other configurations

Wow thats some crazy time....I turn off the AO and its almost instant that it starts rendering for me....I use a modest computer for designing filters so that those with faster speeds will hopefully get a better speed...I am only running an Intel Dual Core running at 2.6...4gig ram and win64bit.......Are you running other things as well SR?...Applications in the background or perhaps virus protection and all that?.....
Then you also have the fact that it uses lights and is not just an image filter...This also slows a filter down no matter the situation.... Stupid things happen to computers for stupid reasons at stupid times!

I'd turn down AO settings to something optimum by custom controlling it. There's a boundary between less noise in the render and acceptable render speeds.
I also suggest faking AO  !

Thanks for the suggestion Skybase I think I might try faking some AO in this filter...  Stupid things happen to computers for stupid reasons at stupid times!

Please, can someone else, put the time it takes the render without any AO active?

Well I turn off AO and it takes more than 2 minutes until something appears for the first time on the screen showing that is working, and considering I have activated the fast preview.

No, I am not running any other thing as well, only filter forge and the interent security but this has an option to turn it off itself when there is a heavy usage, but anyway I will try to switch everything off and try again.

So how can a Intel Dual Core be faster than a Quad Core 3.4 GHz 16 GB RAM?
There must be some mistery here

I have made another new test and have tried with turning off all the AO and also ALL the Antialias (switch it off) then selected image resolution 600x600 and preset 1 with normal computer and windows work (I mean in exactly same situation as I made the 25 minutes test)
And this time I got a much lower time 4 minutes and 30 seconds and the only difference from the 25 minutes and this one is the Antialias.
