Arnold crashing 5-10 mins into render

[djpauker]

Hi,

Ever since I built my new machine, Maya can't render for more than 15 minutes without crashing.

My hardware is:

GTX 2080ti

ryzen 3900x

4x 8 gig DDR4 RAM

Arnold's log gave me this error on the frame it crashed:

00:00:02 27332MB ERROR | can't allocate 36528128 bytes with alignment 64 in ?:?():0 (virtual memory : 123925 Mb)
00:00:03 27396MB ERROR | signal caught: error E06D7363

So you have 32GB of RAM

When Arnold ran out of memory, usage was already at 27GB (27332)

What's your page file size?

My page file size is 34424 MB

So I have 32 gigs of ram. Would you suggest allocating more memory to my page file?

The problem was with arnold's toon shader which had issues with memory leaks in the version I was using. This was fixed by updating Arnold to the latest version.
