If you add a new version of a job you have already submitted, its upload will be much quicker than the initial upload. Chaos Cloud Rendering compares every new job to the existing ones, and if there is a match, the client app uploads only the changes. This is useful when you make a new iteration of an existing scene and is why it's recommended to keep your jobs in Chaos Cloud Rendering while you are still working on them. |
